Trivia[]
- Early in development, Sprig was originally going to be named Weed.
- Thurop Van Orman was once considered for Sprig's voice.
- Sprig claims that he has a short attention span. This, combined with his excitable personality, implies that he has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). When asked if this was the case with his character, Matt Braly said it is "very likely" he has ADHD.
- In "Family Shrub", his eyes are revealed to be blue.
- Sprig is apparently based on the strawberry poison-dart frog. While they occasionally look pink, they are usually orange-red in color, similar to Hop Pop, and also usually possess dark blue arms and legs. However in "The Hardest Thing", it is implied that he is actually a Pink South American Tree Frog.
- He considers Anne "way too old" for him when they were accused of being a couple, implying that he prefers dating people closer to his age.
- Sprig seems to be a musical prodigy as he can sing and is capable of performing the fiddle flawlessly.
- Sprig, arguably, has already had two love interests. Ivy Sundew, whom he starts dating at the end of season one, and Maddie Flour, whom he was engaged to, but broke off.
- It is revealed in "After the Rain" that Sprig and Polly's parents died after getting devoured by large herons. While not stated, it is implied that he remembers this as when Hop Pop began to feel depressed from thinking it, Sprig tells him that it was not his fault.
- In "Sprig's Birthday", it is revealed that Sprig's hat was a birthday gift from his parents.
