X Heucherella 'Buttered Rum' PP25040
Heucherellas are a cross between heucheras and tiarellas, and one gets the best of both worlds with these plants. They combine the disease resistance of tiarellas with the colorful foliage of heucheras. They also are more shade and moisture-tolerant than heucheras.
They are winter hardy where temperatures are mild but do require mulch. Grown primarily for their foliage, they also produce flowers on tall petioles that add height and an airy effect. Make beautiful bed and border plants. Thrives in dry shade.
*Deer & Rabbit Resistant*
