Product Description
Heuchera 'Caramel' PP16560 (10)ct Quarts
Common Name: Coral Bells
Zone 4 to 9, Evergreen (in some or all zones)
Full sun to full shade, depending on zone and conditions.
Plants reach 12 inches tall and 12 to 15 inches wide,
clump-forming perennial.
Leaves emerge green to golden yellow, and matures to its bright golden caramel color by summer. A robust grower, the bright yellow-orange leaves have purple-red undersides. Tiny, light pink to cream flowers, which appear later than most heucheras, are about 18 inches tall.
Fabulous compact habit looks great in containers or as edging. This plant is a Heuchera villosa hybrid. The villosa species is a large, late blooming type that exhibits an increased tolerance of high heat and humidity over other species. Most produce cream flowers in midsummer, though they are grown more for their fantastic foliage. H. villosa is native to the southeastern United States.
Ten (10) plants in quart containers per flat (or tray).
Other Details
The most important part of the plant is its root system. Healthy roots are the foundation of a healthy, vibrant plant. The type of plug container used is based on the specific needs of the plants. Perennials offered as bare root traditionally perform better when planted as bare root.Planted in a specialized mix, potted plants have well established root systems. Top growth stage will vary depending on the current life cycle and time of year when shipped. In Winter and early Spring dormant plants may be shipped. Dormant plants may be planted right away, even before the last frost date.
Most bare root varieties are field grown for at least one season, though Hemerocallis and Hosta are grown for two seasons. The bulk of the soil is removed during the harvesting process and the tops of most varieties are trimmed back to the crown. They are graded, packed in shredded aspen or sphagnum moss and stored in freezers until ready to be shipped.

Plant information and care is provided in the Overview section, Plant Genus Page and general information is provided in the Planting Care & Guides. Additional questions can be asked on each Plant page.
Plant Spacing: Using the maximum mature spread or width of a plant to guide spacing, ensures space to grow to full size. To fill an area sooner, plant them closer together. Just remember, future thinning or transplanting may be needed.
Water: Keep a close eye on newly planted perennials, especially throughout the first growing year. Most early plant loss is due to too much or too little water!

Very Nice Plants
The plants appear to be very healthy. They are larger than I expected them to be. They came very well packed and suffered no damage in shipping. I am very pleased.
