Heuchera LITTLE CUTIES™ ‘Sweet Tart’
Very tangy, lime colored foliage in a tight mound – that's the tart part. The sweet part is the amazing bi-colored cerise and hot pink colored flowers held on dark stems in wand-like clusters. A miniature that blooms all spring, summer, and fall. Great for pots!
