Heucherella 'Gold Cascade'
'Gold Cascade' features small, scallop-shaped foliage that makes a low spreader as a groundcover or a very graceful spiller in a container. The charming, gold colored foliage along with dramatic central markings add a sophisticated touch to any mixed container or garden bed. In mid spring, short spikes of light coral flowers grace this plant for several weeks. Overall, the Cascade™ series is more refined with smaller leaves and habits than our Falls™ Series.
