Height x width: 11 - 16" X 18"

Features: Winter interest, rabbit & deer resistant, native, heat tolerant, drought tolerant, cold tolerant
Uses: Accent, border, container gardening, edging, ground cover, massing, small spaces, under planting, woodland
How To Grow Soil: Coral bells like well-drained soils that are rich in organic matter.
Light: As a general rule, they do well in shade, but for the brightly colored varieties, some morning sun ensures best color development. The color can wash out in full sun, and too much heat and light can cause the leaves to scorch.
Water: Average. It's better to err on the side of caution and keep heuchera on the dry, rather than the wet, side. Keep the soil evenly moist, but not consistently wet to prevent root rot.
Spacing: 1.5 ft
Fertilizing: Spread a layer of compost or rotted manure in early spring. Mulch is a good idea, but keep it from mounding on the crown (center) of the plant.  Heuchera does not require fertilization during the fall or winter months.
Winterizing: Winter mulching will prevent the freezing and thawing that can heave plants roots. Heucheras are somewhat evergreen and should be left in place for winter. The old foliage typically lies flat and gets covered by the new growth, after which it slowly dies away, but you may remove it in early spring if you wish.
Maintenance & Pruning: Cut back the entire flower stalk after flowering to put the plant's energy into growing more leaves.

Sad

I received my plants and the leaves were crunchy and brittle. There were a few tiny leaves at the bottom that were still green and so since the red lightning coral belles are so hard to find I kept the plants thinking they would recover. They didn't.

Great garden plants really is great.

Over the last two years we haves spent hundreds of dollars to relandscape our home. Every plant came from GGP and yes every plant wintered over and came back bigger and better. If your looking for quality plants and a company that treats you right you have come to the right page. My hydrangeas are gorgeous and full of blossoms. Thank you growers from the bottom of my heart.

Not quite "red" yet, but nice plant

This Red Lightning Heuchera was delivered well-packaged, undamaged, very healthy and transplanted without stress. I'm very pleased with this online purchase. Like other Heucheras I've planted, it hasn't quite developed its red veining and I really don't expect it until next spring. So, it's currently more of a "Chartreuse Lightning", lol, but it's healthy and growing.

Again, I'm very please with this purchase and I'll likely be buying more from GGP. My only "issue" is that GGP does not routinely show plants' mature size in the description. I had to go to competitors' sites to track down the expected mature size of Red Lightning, and I ended up buying things on those sites. Mature size of Red Lightning, by the way, is 10-12" high with a 14-16" spread.

Hello Robert! We are sure to show each plant's mature size on all of our plant pages. Head to the more information section and hit the 'details' tab to find extra information such as mature size, sun needs, zone information, and more! Thanks for your feedback, we appreciate it. Happy gardening!

Red Lightning Heuchera

The Red Lightning came in robust, but from week to week the leaves started to get withered and brownish around their contour. Last week I sent you a picture. As i cut the leaves and took it off the soil to examine the roots, I found that there were too much perlite around the roots, perhaps it was done to provide much humidity to the plants while traveling? I have a "3 in 1 soil tester" and am sure to give the right care to my plants. I have a sunny balcony south east exposed and the other plants are doing well, but the Red Lightning.

Hi, Monique!

I apologize for the condition of your Heuchera! I am happy to see that our customer representative Pam was able to set up some replacements for you.
