Summary
Heuchera ‘Dark Chocolate’ forms medium-sized mounds of silvery-purple foliage that fades to bronze. However, the floral display is really what sets this cultivar apart from other selections. ‘Dark Chocolate’ reliably blooms with numerous petite wands of large, pink flowers in late spring. Unfortunately, the habit lost its uniform and dense shape each year after flowering. When grown in full sun, ‘Dark Chocolate’ experienced significant discoloration and burning, and is thus only recommended for part shade – full shade conditions.
