'Plum Pudding' Coral Bells (Heuchera 'Plum Pudding') is a popular, award-winning Terra Nova Nurseries hybrid perennial prized for its glossy, heavily ruffled, plum-purple foliage. With prominent dark purple veins, shimmering silver-grey marbling, and deep violet undersides, it brings rich, multi-tonal depth to low-light gardens where many other plants offer only plain green.

Add Rich Color to Shaded Spaces

Plum Pudding's heart-shaped leaves stand out with their plum-purple color, dark purple veining, and silver-grey marbling that shimmers as the light shifts. The deep violet undersides add another layer of interest, giving the plant genuine depth rather than a single flat color. Newer leaves carry a glossy sheen that makes the color even more noticeable up close.

Welcome Pollinators With Delicate Blooms

In late spring to early summer, slender, wiry purple stalks rise up to 26 inches tall above the foliage, displaying airy panicles of tiny, bell-shaped creamy-white flowers. These blooms attract hummingbirds and butterflies, adding motion and life to the garden above the colorful mound of leaves.

Fit It Into a Compact Footprint

This is a compact, clump-forming perennial that develops a tight basal mound 8 to 12 inches tall and 12 to 16 inches wide. That size makes it well-suited for front-of-the-border pathways, rock gardens, woodland understory plantings, or mixed patio containers paired with contrasting ferns or hostas. Its small footprint also makes it easy to tuck into spots where a larger perennial would not fit.

Grow It With Minimal Fuss

Plum Pudding performs best in partial shade to dappled full shade, with soft morning sun and protection from harsh afternoon heat bringing out the most intense color. Plant it in rich, organic, well-draining soil, and once established, it develops good drought tolerance. It is exceptionally cold-hardy across USDA Zones 3 through 9, naturally ignored by deer and rabbits, and a layer of mulch helps protect its shallow roots from frost heaving in winter. This combination of low upkeep and steady color makes it easy to enjoy year after year.
