Heuchera Firefly Coral Bells

Heuchera Firefly is a native evergreen perennial that offers dynamic foliage color and abundant blooms. Growing 12 to 24 inches tall, its scalloped, maple-like leaves create a dense, bushy mound that changes subtly in color throughout the season, adding year-round charm. Beginning in early summer, tall stems topped with clusters of tubular red flowers appear, attracting pollinators and brightening shaded garden spaces. After blooming, removing the spent flowers encourages fresh growth and ensures the plant continues to thrive.

Also known as coral bells or alumroot, Heuchera Firefly (Syn Heuchera 'Leuchtkafer') is a hardy perennial suitable for Zones 4-9. Its compact, clump-forming habit is perfect for edging pathways, filling borders, or enhancing beds and woodland areas. Firefly is equally impressive in rock gardens and containers, providing texture and vibrant color wherever it's planted.

Easy to care for, Firefly heuchera grows best in partial shade to dappled sunlight and thrives in rich, well-draining soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Consistent moisture and good drainage are essential for healthy growth, and a layer of winter mulch helps prevent root heaving in colder climates. Deadheading spent blooms will encourage a longer flowering period.

Plant Firefly heuchera roots in spring, spacing them 12 to 18 inches apart and planting them 1½ to 2 inches deep.
