Notes
'Pink Skyrocket' foam flower (Tiarella 'Pink Skyrocket') is a perennial for borders, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy, clay, or chalky soil. Conical heads of shrimp-pink buds open to pale pink to white flowers that attract bees and butterflies. The green leaves have burgundy veins and turn bronze in sun or deep black in shade. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Elegans hosta, Red trillium, and Western sword fern.
