Heuchera Plum Pudding is considered one of the finest heucheras, Heuchera Plum Pudding will win your heart. The plum-colored, evergreen foliage is outstanding; even in full shade Heuchera Plum Pudding holds its color well. This little plum pudding perennial is worth growing just for its foliage alone. The white flowers are striking on the dark plum stems, although I remove the stems and use for cut flowers, as I consider the flowers detract from the plant. The plant is more compact than most heucheras Height to 22 inches and width about 12 inches. It is excellent for use around trees and shrubs. Zone 4 - 8, bloom time May - July.
These are proven in the garden as tough, long-lasting plants requiring little maintenance.
Garden Care: Part shade to full sun, Light, fertile, moist but well-drained soil. Side dress with compost or manure in fall. Fertilize in spring. Divide in autumn.

Introducing, exclusively for Greenwood Nursery Club members and customers,
our NEW STEP-UPS ™ Perennial Plant collection.
What are Step-Ups ™? - Our perennials are cultivated and grown with an accelerated system. They are started in small containers, transplanted to quart containers, and then transplanted again to one gallon trade size container. This expands the root system, making our plants perform like a two year perennial the very first year. Step-ups ™ perform the first year you plant them.
you're a step ahead with Step Ups!
