Plant description
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 shoot upwards, before opening to masses of tiny white, star-shaped flowers. Tiarella 'Pink Skyrocket' makes a sublime ground-cover for partially shaded position, and looks best when planted in naturalised drifts and allowed to meander.

How to care for Tiarella Pink Skyrocket (PBR):
Tiarella thrives best in cool, moist, humus-rich soil and prefers partial to full shade, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Protect the plant from excessive winter moisture to prevent root rot. It can spread freely, making it an excellent choice for ground cover in shaded areas.
Trim back lightly after the flowering period, and remove any dead or damaged leaves to tidy the plant and encourage new growth, in late winter or early spring.

Please note:
This perennial is semi-evergreen so it can lose some of its leaves in winter. In colder regions or more exposed gardens, it may lose them all, but then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
