Dolce Key Lime Pie Heuchera produces brightly colored mounded 8” to 16” clumps of scalloped heart-shaped leaves. These leaves are veined and mottled in shades of bright lime green. The colors deepen and intensify in cooler weather. In spring to summer long erect flower spikes of tiny bell-shaped pink flowers rise as many as 10 inches above the leaves. They are known to be drought tolerant; they attract hummingbirds and are easy to grow. Their close relatives are Heucheras Creme Brulee Creme de Menthe Licorice Mocha Mint and Peach Melba.
