Heuchera Red Lightning

Red Lightning Coral Bells

This stunning Heuchera is distinguished by its golden foliage veined with red, creating a striking contrast. Its deeply veined, glossy leaves provide year-round visual interest, especially when illuminated by sunlight. In late spring and early summer, this variety produces small bell-shaped flowers, either white or pink, on slender stems that attract bees and butterflies. Maintenance is simple: water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to let it become waterlogged, as this plant does not tolerate excess moisture. Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring to support healthy growth and maintain the vibrant color of the foliage. Remove faded flowers and lightly trim the foliage at the end of winter or early spring to encourage new growth. Cold-hardy, Heuchera Red Lightning benefits from mulching around the base to protect the roots during harsh winters.
