Heuchera's real gift is color that lasts all year without a flower in sight—and this one delivers caramel and amber tones that deepen as temperatures drop. The ruffled foliage gets more intense through fall and winter, when most of the garden has faded to brown.

Plant it in part shade with soil that drains well; it settles into average conditions once its roots take hold. Use it as edging, in a woodland border, or massed for impact in a shady corner where you need warmth of tone.
