Bring refined foliage color to shady borders with Heuchera × 'City™ Shanghai'. You will get a neat, mounded clump of rounded leaves with a silvery, metallic look and seasonal flower spikes that rise above the foliage. This coral bells selection is a reliable, long-season accent for mixed containers, woodland edges, and front-of-border plantings.
Plant it where you can enjoy the foliage up close. Part shade is an easy fit for most gardens, especially where summers are warm, but it can also handle full sun when the soil stays evenly moist and the site avoids harsh, drying conditions. Give it well-drained soil enriched with organic matter, and water deeply during dry spells to keep the crown and leaves looking their best.
At maturity, the foliage mound stays compact while flower stems add height. Tuck it among hostas, ferns, brunnera, hellebores, and spring bulbs for layered texture, or repeat it in drifts for a polished, contemporary look. Clean up tired leaves as needed, and in colder regions add a light winter mulch after the ground freezes to help reduce heaving.
