Heuchera NORTHERN EXPOSURE 'Red'

NORTHERN EXPOSURE™ ‘Red’ coral bells makes a dense mound of rounded, dark-red foliage that holds its color later in the season than many heucheras. Terra Nova lists this cold-hardy, rust-resistant selection for USDA Zones 3–10, at about 14 inches tall and 20 inches wide; its [cultivar profile](https://www.terranovanurseries.com/product/heuchera-northern-exposure-red/) records spring flowering and a full-sun-to-shade exposure range. ## Landscape Use Plant it in a border or mass planting where the dark leaves create contrast against grasses, ferns, or lighter foliage. The breeder lists full sun, part shade, and full shade; in sunnier sites, maintain even moisture during establishment and watch for leaf scorch in hot conditions. ## Growing Conditions Choose moderately well-drained soil with organic matter. Keep the crown at the soil surface and water while roots establish, then avoid waterlogged soil, especially through winter; the breeder describes average water needs and favors soil that is not too wet. ## Maintenance Remove damaged leaves and spent flower stems as needed. Trim tired foliage in early spring to reveal fresh growth, and clear debris that could hold moisture against the crown.
