Galaxy Alumroot

Galaxy Alumroot is an amazing variegated red hybrid Heuchera with large leaves patented by Terra Nova Nurseries in 2014. It is a smaller plant, maturing to a mound 9 inches tall and 12 inches wide. White flowers on dark stems appear in late spring to mid-summer, increasing the height only to 14 inches. The leaves are very large and are initially bright red, maturing to a darker warm red with pink spots. The spots become more noticeable on the older leaves. Works well as color accents in containers, massed as a groundcover or in the front row of a border. It is deer resistant, heat tolerant and attracts birds and bees. I milder climates the foliage is persistent and attractive. I will grow in full sun or partial shade, there may be some leaf scorch with full afternoon sun.
