Tiarella Pink Skyrocket
Pink Skyrocket Foamflower
Pink Skyrocket Foamflower lifts airy pink flower spikes above a low mound of deeply cut leaves. Dark markings trace the foliage, adding contrast to shaded spaces even when the plant is out of bloom.
The main flower display arrives in spring. As temperatures cool, the leaves deepen in color, with especially dark tones in shade. Its compact scale makes it useful beside a woodland path or beneath shrubs with an open canopy.
Grow in partial to full shade with rich soil that contains plenty of organic matter. Keep moisture reasonably even. Evergreen foliage can provide winter interest where conditions allow.
