Description
Recognized as the original purple coral bells, 'Palace Purple' stands out as one of the most iconic and widely planted varieties of heucheras. It earned its place in horticultural history when it was named the Perennial Plant Association Plant of the Year in 1991.
This cultivar boasts generously sized, glossy leaves that exhibit a captivating range of colors, from deep olive green to purplish-bronze. Notably, the underside of the leaves reveals a striking metallic amethyst purple hue, adding a touch of intrigue to the loose clusters. Rising above the foliage on sturdy 20-inch stems, delicate cream flowers provide a charming contrast to the vibrant leaves.
Coral bells are cherished for their ease of care and adaptable nature, effortlessly blending with a variety of other perennials in garden landscapes. Their low, mounding growth habit makes them perfect for bordering pathways or adding visual interest to containers, enhancing any garden with their unique beauty.
