A 2007 introduction from French breeder Thierry Delabroye, 'Christa' is similar to 'Caramel' but brighter orange foliage and a bit more compact habit.
Fabulous compact habit looks great in containers or as edging. This plant is a Heuchera villosa hybrid. The villosa species is a large, late blooming type that exhibits an increased tolerance of high heat and humidity over other species. Most produce cream flowers in midsummer, though they are grown more for their fantastic foliage. H. villosa is native to the southeastern United States.
