Heucherella is a bi-generic cross between Heuchera (Alumroot) and Tiarella (Foamflower), and this cross has resulted in a very unusual and beautiful plant. Forming a mounded, 9", evergreen clump, Stoplight's spring leaves are bright yellow with a large red blotch in the center. It has typical Foamflower type white flowers. Then foliage turns straw-yellow or green-yellow in the summer. Give it part shade or morning sun, good drainage, and moderately fertile soil. The spring coloration especially, is really wild and will really pop out and catch your eye. Cat# 1467
