Features

Characteristics

Plant Needs

A fantastic foliage find for any shade garden. New leaves are bright orange with copper red centers and yellow edging. Individual leaves are large at 5" across with deep dissection for a maple-like appearance. Red stems hold proportionate scapes of white flowers. Compared with 'Hopscotch', this variety is deeper orange with more defined central patterns and marginal color. Our most vigorous Heucherella to date.

Heucherella is a hybrid genus produced from a cross between Heuchera and Tiarella. From Heuchera they gain the many different foliage colors and textures, while Tiarella add deeper leaf lobes and serration, as well as their signature central leaf blotching. Heucherella are sterile hybrids, and so typically have longer bloom seasons than either of their parents.
