Heuchera 'Fire Alarm'
- With its fiery red foliage and contrasting white flower panicles in the summer, 'Fire Alarm' is certainly a heuchera that draws the eye.
- Boasting some of the reddest leaves of all heucheras, this variety looks fabulous planted alongside other striking foliage plants (like hostas).
- A low-maintenance plant, 'Fire Alarm' withstands even the coldest winter temperatures and does so without so much as a single complaint. Lush.
- Compact in nature, this mound-forming perennial is well-suited to container growing on a partially shaded patio or balcony (just keep the compost moist).
- Did you know Another name for heucheras is coral bells, thanks to their bell-shaped blooms.
