True to its name, Heucherella 'Solar Eclipse' creates a dramatic celestial event in your shade garden. This stunning perennial features deeply scalloped, mounded foliage that is truly unique: each leaf is a rich, dark burgundy-chocolate centered by a wide, shocking border of bright lime-green. The contrast is so sharp and consistent that it looks as though each leaf has been hand-painted to capture a total eclipse.

As a Heucherella (a cross between Heuchera and Tiarella), 'Solar Eclipse' inherits the best of both worlds—the incredible color palettes of Coral Bells and the deeply lobed leaf shapes and vigorous growth of Foamflowers. In late spring to early summer, slender stems rise above the foliage carrying delicate wands of tiny, white, bell-shaped flowers. The plant stays tidy and compact, making it an excellent choice for adding sophisticated "pop" to darker corners of the landscape.

• Foliage: Heart-shaped, scalloped leaves of deep reddish-brown with a thick electric-green margin.
• Flowers: Airy sprays of small white flowers that attract bees and butterflies.
• Light: Partial Shade to Full Shade. Morning sun is tolerated, but hot afternoon sun should be avoided to keep the lime-green borders from fading.
• Growth Habit: Clumping and compact; matures at 10–12 inches tall and 16–18 inches wide.
• Hardiness: Very reliable and cold-hardy; USDA Zones 4–9.
• Landscape Use: Outstanding as an edging plant for shaded pathways, a high-contrast "filler" in mixed patio containers, or as a vibrant accent in woodland gardens.
