Hercules Coral Bells is an attention grabbing variegated form with cream and green marbled leaves and cheerful bright cherry red flower sprays. This Heuchera was named after the Greek hero to emphasize its strong growth and robust appearance. The leaves emerge in the spring with strikingly striped leaves, the contrasting red flowers follow in late spring and early summer. The color of the leaves becomes more green in the heat of midsummer but the striking variegation returns with cooler temperatures. At maturity Hercules Coral Bells creates a loose, fluffy mound 16 inches tall by 16 inches wide, the red and pink flower display increases the height to 20 inches. It performs best if provided with some shade. Beautiful in containers or as an accent in the front row of a perennial border; striking if planted in large numbers as a groundcover in shade. It will attract birds, bees and is resistant to deer. This very showy selection was introduced from the Netherlands by Herbert Oudshoorn in 2008.
