Heuchera 'Obsidian'
Alum Root, Coral Bells
zones 3-8

| Description:
The semi-precious gemstone, Obsidian, is
the result of volcanic lava coming in contact with water. This process

leaves of this Heuchera are so smooth it appears it has been polished to
achieve this gemstone effect. Aptly named: this new Heuchera is destined to
become a new favorite. Fabulous when paired with brightly colored flowers
and foliage in the garden. |
