Bring texture into your garden by adding Heuchera ‘Evening Gown’ to your landscape. This mid-summer blooming perennial will appease those who gaze upon either the white flowers or the black and purple ruffled foliage. It is great as a contrast plant or as a focal point. Its mounding habit yields growth of 12”-14” tall and 20”-24” wide with a scape height of up to 20”.
Native to North America, your local pollinators will be quite happy stopping by your garden. This attracts hummingbirds, bees and butterflies! Even though it may not be in bloom for long, the foliage makes up by providing an appealing texture and dark color as an evergreen. Use within mass planting, border planting, container gardening, landscape and even as a cut flower. If you live by the ocean or where salt is used for de-icing, this plant will thrive with its salt tolerance. Maintenance is next to none, so you can plant it and forget it if you’d like!
Dressed Up Evening Gown Coral Bells Care
Planting in partial shade will allow this to thrive, however it will continue to grow in either predominantly sun or shade. If placed in full sun, the intensity of the dark colors will be lessened. Either neutral or slightly acidic pH soil will do well. Average or fertile soil is recommended, but do use soil that is well draining to prevent waterlogged roots. Watering is best done on a consistent basis by not allowing standing water overtop of the roots.
Pruning is minimal and can be done as seen fit. To determine whether this needs to be pruned, observe the foliage for tattered and torn leaves and trim below the affected area(s).
Dressed Up Evening Gown Coral Bells Spacing
Keep in mind that this is a shorter mounding variety. Recommended spacing is 20”-24”, center on center, for most applications. Container gardening can be spaced closer about 12”-18” from the center of the plant, keeping an eye on neighboring plants to ensure the roots are not fighting for nutrients and growth space.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
