Description

Leucothoe fontanesiana ‘Zeblid’, marketed as the Scarletta® doghobble, is a standout broadleaf evergreen prized for its dramatic year-round foliage color and naturally arching, elegant form. New leaves emerge a vivid bronzy-red in spring, maturing to glossy deep green in summer and shifting again to rich purplish-burgundy tones in fall and winter, offering exceptional four-season interest. Native to the Appalachian woodlands, this compact cultivar is ideal for shaded gardens where its texture and color bring life to otherwise dim spaces. Recognized for its superior foliage performance and landscape adaptability, Scarletta® continues to be a favorite among designers seeking dependable color in low-light conditions.

Striking bronzy-red new growth that deepens into rich burgundy through fall and winter
Compact, arching habit ideal for shade gardens and woodland plantings
Glossy evergreen foliage that delivers strong four-season color interest
