Dolce® ‘Wildberry’ Coral Bells (Heuchera)

Make a stunning statement in your shade garden with Dolce® ‘Wildberry’ Coral Bells, a show-stopping foliage perennial that commands attention with its mesmerizing deep purple-magenta leaves. Each rounded, maple-like leaf features dramatic dark veining that creates an intricate pattern across its velvety surface, adding depth and texture that changes subtly with the seasons and light conditions.

Part of the acclaimed Dolce® series bred for superior performance, ‘Wildberry’ forms a lush, compact mound of overlapping foliage that remains vibrant from spring through fall. In late spring to early summer, delicate spires of small bell-shaped flowers rise above the foliage on burgundy stems, adding an extra dimension of interest—though it’s the spectacular foliage that truly steals the show. The intense coloration is most vivid in cool weather, deepening to rich plum tones that create striking contrasts in mixed plantings.

This versatile perennial excels in partial to full shade, making it an invaluable solution for those challenging darker corners of the garden. Hardy in zones 4-9, ‘Wildberry’ tolerates a wide range of conditions once established, including moderate drought. It’s also deer resistant, making it ideal for gardens where browsing is a concern. The compact 8-10 inch height and 12-14 inch spread make it perfect for front-of-border placements, container combinations, or as a groundcover.

Pair ‘Wildberry’ with chartreuse hostas, silver-leafed lungwort, or Japanese painted ferns for maximum impact. It also creates beautiful harmonies with pink astilbes, white bleeding hearts, or complementary Heuchera varieties. Whether used as an accent plant, massed for bold effect, or incorporated into mixed containers, this exceptional cultivar brings year-round color and sophistication to shade gardens.
