Heucheras are native to the woodlands of North America. They tend to grow in dense clumps and have brightly coloured foliage. They thrive in shade and make great groundcover plants. While plants are mainly grown for their foliage, inconspicuous flowers in summer add to their charm.
Heuchera ‘Café Ole’ has ruffled, chocolate brown leaves, which contrast well with the masses of white-purple flowers borne in early summer. It’s great for the mixed herbaceous border, and also works well in containers.
