Description

The scalloped, caramel colored leaves of Heuchera x 'Blondie' become burnished red when the weather cools. 'Blondie' produces dense spikes of creamy yellow blooms from late spring through mid fall. With its dwarf habit, heavy blooming and showy evergreen foliage, this charming Coral Bells is suitable for containers as well as the border. A hybrid of native species, it is a good performer in the deep South.

Heuchera 'Blondie' prefers mostly shade, particularly in the afternoon. It grows best in fertile, moist, but well-drained soil. Frequent division helps this perennial to maintain its vigor.

We ship via UPS & USPS (the Post Office), and their ship rates are automatically generated through our site. We do not profit on shipping costs. We are working with these providers to get our customers the best rates possible.

All ship times are subject to change if extreme weather conditions are present here at the nursery or at the shipping destination.

Please note: Depending on the time of year, the foliage of the plants may be trimmed to fit into our shipping boxes. This could delay the flowering of the plant, but many perennials actually benefit from being cut back.

We are currently not able to ship to Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and outside of the US.
