Heuchera Forever Red

Heuchera Forever Red

Heuchera Forever Red brings brilliant, long-lasting color to the garden with intensely red, glossy foliage that holds its vibrancy throughout the season. Its compact, mounding habit makes it perfect for borders, containers, and mixed plantings, where the luminous red leaves add bold contrast against greens and silvers. In late summer, delicate pinkish-white flower spikes rise above the foliage, drawing in hummingbirds and pollinators for an added layer of interest.

This standout variety is prized for both its durability and its stunning visual appeal. The semi-evergreen leaves retain their color even in high heat and bright sun, while its tidy form remains neat and low-maintenance. Forever Red provides continuous beauty from spring through fall and can even add a pop of color in mild winter regions.

Highly adaptable and easy to grow, Heuchera Forever Red thrives in well-draining soil with regular moisture and performs beautifully in full sun to partial shade. It’s deer-resistant, heat-tolerant, and dependable, making it a favorite choice for gardeners looking to add lasting foliage color and texture to their landscape.
