Heuchera 'Rave On'

Rave On Coralbells

Heuchera ‘Rave On’ is a floriferous perennial valued for its abundant, vibrant pink flower spikes and attractive foliage. It forms a neat, mounded clump of rounded green leaves that provide a tidy base throughout the growing season. In late spring to early summer, tall, airy stems carry masses of bright rose-pink bell-shaped flowers above the foliage, often continuing for an extended bloom period. The showy flowers make it especially effective for adding vertical color in shaded plantings.
