Caramel Alumroot is probably one of the loveliest of the golden orange leaved Heuchera selections. It's leaves emerge a golden orange and mature to a mound of mixed shades of gold, amber, olive greens and purple. The reddish purple leaf undersides are a striking contrast to the golden shades above. At maturity the plant's mounded form reaches about 12 inches in height and 20 inches wide, the foamy spikes of creamy white flowers in mid summer increase the height to 24 inches. Heuchera 'Caramel' was introduced in 2006 by French breeder Thierry Delabroye, it was discovered by his wife, Sandrine. This selection is deer resistant, attracts butterflies and birds, is heat tolerant and can be planted in more sun than other selections. It works well as a foliage color accent, in containers, or massed as a ground cover.
