Heuchera ‘Snowy Panky’

Common Name:
Coral Bells ‘Snowy Panky’

Description:
Heuchera ‘Snowy Panky’ is a compact perennial celebrated for its delicate, frosted foliage that gives a softly ethereal appearance. The leaves display a palette of pale silvery‑white and light green, often speckled or mottled, with hints of soft pink veining. In late spring, it produces wiry stems bearing clusters of small, pale pink to white bell‑shaped flowers that float above the foliage. The foliage remains the main attraction through most of the year, offering subtle contrast and brightness in shady garden spots or container displays. It thrives in well‑drained, humus-rich soil and appreciates part shade protection, especially in warmer regions like Melbourne, to preserve leaf clarity. With minimal care, ‘Snowy Panky’ provides elegant, low-growing structure in mixed borders or shady corners.
