Purple foliage is widely available in Heuchera but finding a purple leaf variety of Heucherella is a different story. We have fallen in love with this unique variety. Heucherella proves to be hardy than most Heuchera because of their Tiarella parentage.
Heucherella is a hybrid genus produced from a cross between Heuchera and Tiarella. ‘Plum Cascade’ is the first purple Heucherella, and it’s trailing!
