Most members of this genus are grown for their foliage, and there is a huge range of varieties with exotic coloured leaves. They make great ground cover, or can be used to soften the edges of paths.

Heuchera 'Midnight Rose' is a spectacular variety with black background foliage spotted with rich pink marks in spring, turning to a lighter shade of black with cream and pink dots in summer. Quite unlike anything we have seen before.
