Featured Plants - Heuchera 'Silver Scrolls'


'Silver Scrolls' is a medium-sized coralbells with very silver foliage and white flowers tinged with pink on erect, 24" stems in the late spring and early summer. When the new foliage appears in the spring (above), it is silver flushed with burgundy, but as the season progresses, it becomes almost silver and black, with the leaf veins resembling cast iron scrollwork against a light background (right). The foliage remains attractive through the fall and winter. 'Silver Scrolls' resulted from a hybrid cross made in 1996 at The Primrose Path. Several other named cultivars including 'Silver Maps,' 'Silver Lode,' and 'Raspberry Ice' were seedlings in this same hybrid cross.
	'Silver Scrolls' has been enthusiastically received by the gardening public and by commercial producers. It is very vigorous and hardy, filling out into large (12" wide) clumps from a spring planting. It is a heavy bloomer, producing showy pink-tinged white flowers on erect stems from mid spring to early summer.
