Heuchera 'Red Lightning' | Red Lightning Coral Bells
DESCRIPTION
Heuchera 'Red Lightning' is an eye-catching variety known for its bold foliage, featuring bright golden-yellow leaves with vivid red veining. The heavily lobed and ruffled leaves create a dynamic texture that stands out in garden beds, borders, or containers.

Bred for exceptional vigor and adaptability, 'Red Lightning' offers a dramatic combination of color and texture, perfect for creating visual contrast in mixed plantings.
