Heuchera cylindrica - Roundleaf alumroot

Description

A neat little Heuchera native to the most northeastern part of our state in Siskiyou and Modoc counties.  Grows at high elevation in alpine locations often in rock crevices or scree.  Leaves are deep green, round in shape, and lobed. They form a dense little clump upon which spikes of cream to pale-green colored flowers sit.  A perfect choice for high elevation gardens- but can grow well down here in the Bay Area too.  Make sure to give in light shade and good drainage.  Suitable for life in a pot, ideal for a crevice garden.  This plant is drought tolerant, but will accept weekly water.
