Description
This is a compact "Jacob’s ladder" variety that, as the cultivar name suggests, features purple tinted, green leaves and burgundy stems with clusters of slightly fragrant cobalt-blue flowers. Leaves appear ladder-like in structure, hence the common name. They have a stronger purple hue in cooler weather.

Height / Spread / Trail
35 x 30cm

Flowering Time
April-May

Possible Situation
Purplish foliage and blue flowers will brighten shady locations in borders, woodland gardens, cottage gardens or shade gardens.

Ideal Conditions
Prefers cool partial shade in the hottest summer months, with free draining soil or compost. Prefers rich, humusy, consistently moist soils that do not dry out.

Temperature Tolerance
A hardy plant which should survive normal winter conditions outside, especially if protected from the hardest frosts.

Plant Care
Plants may be cut back to basal foliage after flowering or if foliage declines to tidy the planting and to encourage a possible late summer rebloom.

Suggested pot sizes to transplant plugs : 11cm : 1 Litre : 3 Litre +

Customers who bought this item also bought the following:

Heuchera 'Midnight Rose' (VR) £49.50 This is a fantastic sport from 'Obsidian' - with dark foliage flecked irregularly with rose-pink tints. The flecks brighten as the season progresses until they become almost cream in colour.	Heucherella 'Sweet Tea' (P) £49.50 Leaves with huge cinnamon stars are surrounded by the loveliest intense orange tea coloured borders. The big, palmate cut leaves darken in the summer and lighten up again in the autumn. Its H. villosa origins give it a big bold habit and summer heat tolerance.
Heuchera 'Marmalade' (P) £46.75 A great garden performing amber coloured Heuchera. Spring foliage is more purple and summer becomes more red.	Heuchera 'Electra' (P) £49.50 Shocking, blood-red veins electrify the golden leaves of this variety. Red venation becomes feint while the leaf changes from shades of yellow in spring, to chartreuse in summer and autumn. Short, dense cones of white flowers.
Heuchera 'Berry Smoothie' (P) £49.50 A real "smoothie" colour all year round - rose pink, through raspberry to blackberry shades. Big, bold habit. A blend of heat loving H. villosa and cold tolerance of H. americana.
