Heuchera Cherries Jubilee
Coral Bells Cherries Jubilee'
Heuchera ‘Cherries Jubilee’ is a colorful foliage perennial valued for its vibrant cherry-red leaves accented with darker veining. It forms a compact, mounded clump of rounded foliage that emerges bright cherry-red in spring and maintains strong red tones through the growing season, often deepening to burgundy hues in cooler weather. In late spring to early summer, slender stems carry sprays of small creamy-white flowers above the foliage, adding a light accent while the dramatic leaf color remains the focal point.
