Notes
Giving the impression of delicate powder puffs, the flowers on Tiarella Pink Skyrocket start as pink buds on burgundy stems, opening in a cone of tiny fluffy, white, star shaped flowers. The foliage is lobed and blotched with burgundy, resulting in an attractive plant for groundcover, particularly useful in a shaded area. Supplied in biodegradable pot made from waste coir and natural latex.
