"I LOVE this plant! It starts early in cool springs and grows just in time
to cover the tulip and daffodil foliage with its lovely burgundy leaves. A
real winner for the front of the border." -- iVillager jeannez
Latin name: Heuchera micrantha diversifolia 'Palace Purple'
Fantastic, maple-leaf shaped, purple foliage is the main feature here.

in rich, evenly moist soil. This variety was discovered at Kew Gardens in
England by a curator there, but the species originated in the western United
States.
