Summary
Heuchera ‘Beaujolais’ is a large and vigorous cultivar with wine colored foliage that fades to dark green. The plants would have rated higher if evaluated solely for their habit; however, they were consistently afflicted with fungal leaf spot in late summer. 2013 was a particularly bad year when the leaves look pallid and dry. ‘Beaujolais’ does have an outstanding floral display with large panicles of tiny, light-pink flowers. When grown in full sun, ‘Beaujolais’ experienced significant burning and discoloration, and is thus recommended for part shade – full shade conditions.
