Caramel Heuchera

Caramel Heuchera (Heuchera 'Caramel') is one of the most striking foliage perennials you can grow in shade — large, scalloped leaves open in warm apricot tones in spring, deepen to soft amber through summer, and shift to rich salmon-red in fall. A true four-season plant that earns its spot in the garden even when it isn't in bloom. Native to the U.S. Northeast, it's adaptable, heat tolerant, and deer resistant.

Why Gardeners Choose Caramel Heuchera
