Terra Nova Nurseries is debuting the new Heuchera 'Rosewood' which demonstrated good performance in Terra Nova's full-sun garden trials with minimal maintenance.
Heuchera 'Rosewood' captivates the eye with its glossy, deep umber-brown foliage, beautifully contrasted by cream-colored flowers that lure hummingbirds and other pollinators. This recent introduction from Terra Nova showcases a moderate, clumping growth habit and thrives in both full sun and part shade. Thick, leathery foliage gives 'Rosewood' natural insect resistance, making it a standout choice for borders, edges and mass plantings.
The breeding team at Terra Nova recommends allowing 'Rosewood' to dry moderately between waterings during finishing time in the greenhouse. Finishing growers can expect the finish time from a liner to a 4-inch pot to be 6-8 weeks; finish time from a liner to a 1-gallon pot is 10-12 weeks. 'Rosewood' grows most actively in spring and reaches a height of 8", width of 16" and flower height of 18". USDA Hardiness Zones for the company's new coral bells are 4-9.
Terra Nova Nurseries has created a "Plant Profile" page and "Grower Recipe" specific to this new variety and others, so growers interested in orders can learn about growing habits, plant characteristics, fertilization recommendations, water requirements and other insights provided by the breeding team. These documents can be viewed and downloaded for printing here.
