Description
Tiarella 'Spring Symphony'PBR
Height x Spread: 20cm x 20cm
'Spring Symphony' has deeply lobed, green maple-like leaves with dark markings. A firecracker of a flower spike opens from bottom to top producing tawny-pink to white, starry flowers from pink buds. Multiple flower spikes bloom during late spring.
Faded blooms should be removed to prolong flowering - preferably by pulling the whole flower spike out from the base. This Tiarella acts as a fabulous ground cover perennial especially in a shady situation. Woodland situations, underplanting roses or shrubs are all ideal uses for this plant which thrives in a humus-rich, moist soil but which will tolerate drier situations.
