Striking red and gold, the Golden Zebra Foamy Bells (xHeucherella 'Golden Zebra') is an incredible statement plant to dress up your garden with its stunning color combination! Golden Zebra has lobed, maple-shaped leaves of bright yellow with dark red centers and it displays a prominent black pattern in the middle of each leaf!
In late spring, this hybrid between Coral Bells and Foam Flowers produces small white bell-shaped flowers on wand-like stems. Heucherella is easy to grow and has become incredibly popular in landscapes. Attracting butterflies and hummingbirds, but resistant to deer.
Hardy throughout USDA hardiness zones 4 to 9, these space-saving perennials can remain semi-evergreen or evergreen in mild winter climates.
Planting and Application:
The Golden Zebra Foamy Bells will surely become a "must-have" plant for your landscape! With its outstanding vigor, color, and growth habit, 'Golden Zebra' is great for any perennial garden! Growing beautifully throughout the understory and the canopies of larger trees and shrubs, Foamy Bells are lovely groundcover, facer plants and skirting around these shade plants to hide their leggier bare lower stems.
Place as edging or ribbons of color throughout your Cottage borders, Rock Gardens, or as landscaping garden filler and groundcover. Best in groupings that really show off the vibrant striped foliage and airy blooms. You'll love the butterflies and hummingbirds that will arrive for the buffet!

#ProPlantTips for Care:
These Perennial plants are tolerant of heat and humidity, Golden Zebra has outstanding vigor when planted in well-drained organically enriched soil. You'll want to provide Foamy Bells full shade in hotter growing zones, or partial shade will bring out the best coloration!
A good 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch at the base of your plants, to help retain moisture, especially in areas exposed to direct sunlight. Prune in the very early spring to clear away old foliage and freshen up the mounds. You can deadhead the flowers as soon as they fade to tidy up the mounds. Deer, pests, and diseases even seem to skip over these hardy little wonders!
- Easy Care & Low Maintenance
- Full Shade & Part Shade
- Any Well-Drained Soil Type
- Loves Consistent Moisture, Organic Matter & Mulched Beds
- Disease, Pest & Deer Resistant!
Add some stripes and dramatic color to your landscape with the Golden Zebra Foamy Bells from Nature Hills and enjoy fantastic curb appeal all year round!
