Tiarella Pink Skyrocket (PBR) | 2 Litre Pot

Deeply-lobed, green-leaved, pink and white flowering perennial for shade. Position: partial shade Soil: cool, moist, humus-rich soil Rate of growth: average to fast-growing Flowering period: May to July Hardiness: fully hardy The deeply lobed green leaves create a somewhat lacy effect, and each is irregularly threaded or blotched with burgundy. Then, in spring and early summer, burgundy-flushed stems bearing cone-shaped clusters of tight, pink buds are jettisoned, before opening to masses of tiny white, star-shaped flowers. It makes a sublime ground-cover for partially shaded position, and looks best when planted in naturalised drifts and allowed to meander. Garden care: Removing the faded blooms regularly will prolong flowering and encourage more to come. Cut back and compost the spent flower stems in autumn and apply a dry mulch around the crown of the plant to protect against frost damage.
