| History | This new Heucherella is unique in being the first trailing Heucherella. A sibling to Heucherella ‘Yellowstone Falls’, this new and distinct cultivar of Heucherella a originated from a controlled cross between a proprietary unreleased Heuchera villosa hybrid as the seed parent and a mass of selected proprietary trailing Tiarella as the pollen parent. Compared to the seed parent the new cultivar is trailing with cream colored flowers rather than pink. Compared to the pollen parent, the new cultivar has peachy orange to rust red leaves rather than green. Compared to its sibling, Heucherella ‘Yellowstone Falls’, the new cultivar has purple red to brown to olive green foliage rather than yellow to lime. |
