Ready to play? ‘Hopscotch’ is the orange-toned Heucherella we've all been waiting for—bringing a playful punch of color and texture to the garden from spring through fall. In early spring, vibrant red leaves with deep red centers make their first move, showing off a rich, fiery palette. As the season progresses, they lighten to bronze-red, and by summer, mellow into a deep green that keeps the garden looking fresh and full. Each leaf is finely lobed and lacy, adding eye-catching texture to shade beds and borders.
But this game isn’t just about foliage—come late spring, creamy bottlebrush-shaped flowers pop up above the leaves, adding even more charm to this multi-season performer. With its ever-changing color and intricate leaf form, ‘Hopscotch’ brings movement, warmth, and whimsy to any shady space. It’s the orange breakthrough Heucherella lovers have been waiting for—and it’s ready to jump into your garden.
