Tiarella ‘Candy Striper’
Foamflower |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.516.280
Foamflowers are close cousins to the Coral-bells, with similar sprays of flowers over a low clump of foliage. This selection features large, deeply-cut green leaves with beet-red stripes in the middle, forming a star pattern. Spikes of soft-pink buds open into fragrant white flowers in late spring. An excellent choice for edging in the shade garden. Winter foliage colour is rich bronzy-purple. Do not prune back in the fall, just wait and remove any tattered or ugly leaves in the spring. USPP#15528: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
