Heuchera Dolee Cream Burlee
Coral Bells Dolee Cream Brulee
Heuchera ‘Dolce® Crème Brûlée’ is a colorful foliage perennial valued for its warm peach to caramel-colored leaves. It forms a compact, mounded clump of rounded foliage that emerges bright peach-orange in spring, gradually maturing to rich caramel and warm copper tones through summer, often intensifying again in cooler fall 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 vibrant leaves remain the primary ornamental feature.
