Product Description
Heuchera 'Frosted Berry' PPAF CPBRAF - Proven Winners® DOLCE® Series (20)ct Flat
Common Name: Coral Bells
A sport out of the 2023 National Perennial of the Year® 'Wildberry' with matching habit, leaf size, and exceptional landscape performance. Huge 5-6" silver leaves have charcoal veins. New leaves have a slight blush (or "frosting") to the leaves. Charcoal stems hold white flowers on rosy pink calyxes. An excellent choice for container gardens or for use in mixed containers. Site in well-drained soil for the best landscape performance.
Compared with 'Silver Gumdrop' this has a taller, more rounded habit and has smaller light pink to white flowers instead of dark pink.
Coral bells are easy to grow and blend easily with most other perennials in the landscape. Because of their low, mounding habit, they are often used as edging along paths or in containers. Try cutting a few of the tall flower scapes for fresh bouquets.

Other Details
The most important part of the plant is its root system. Healthy roots are the foundation of a healthy, vibrant plant. The type of plug container used is based on the specific needs of the plants. Perennials offered as bare root traditionally perform better when planted as bare root.Planted in a specialized mix, potted plants have well established root systems. Top growth stage will vary depending on the current life cycle and time of year when shipped. In Winter and early Spring dormant plants may be shipped. Dormant plants may be planted right away, even before the last frost date.
Most bare root varieties are field grown for at least one season, though Hemerocallis and Hosta are grown for two seasons. The bulk of the soil is removed during the harvesting process and the tops of most varieties are trimmed back to the crown. They are graded, packed in shredded aspen or sphagnum moss and stored in freezers until ready to be shipped.

Plant Spacing: Using the maximum mature spread or width of a plant to guide spacing, ensures space to grow to full size. To fill an area sooner, plant them closer together. Just remember, future thinning or transplanting may be needed.
Water: Keep a close eye on newly planted perennials, especially throughout the first growing year. Most early plant loss is due to too much or too little water!
