Terra Nova Nurseries has revealed Heuchera Grande 'Carnelian', a new variety addition to the company's Heuchera Grande Series. The villosa hybrid is lauded for its bold, textured foliage which adds visual interest to partial shade or full sun landscapes and gardens.
Heuchera Grande 'Carnelian' is bred for its oversized, ruffled leaves in rich carnelian red with coppery undertones. It grows with a fast, mounding habit, making it a standout container or landscape plant; 'Carnelian' also adds lasting impact to mass plantings and mixed beds with reddish-bronze foliage that shimmers like polished stones.

Terra Nova's new heuchera is drought-tolerant once established, deer-resistant and a powerful pollinator attractor. Grande 'Carnelian' thrives in warm climates and grows most actively in summer, reaching a height of 18", width of 28" and flower height of 30".
The company's breeding team recommends allowing Grande 'Carnelian' to dry slightly between waterings for greenhouse growing. The finish time from a liner to a 4-inch pot is six to eight weeks; finish time from a liner to a 1-gallon pot is 10 to 12 weeks. 'Carnelian' prefers moderately well-drained, organic soil and has average water needs once planted in the garden. The new addition to Terra Nova's Heuchera Grande Series is hardy in Zones 4-9.
