Foam Flower 'Candy Striper'
Noted for its large leaves, Tiarella ‘Candy Striper’ (Foam Flower) is a compact herbaceous perennial forming a lush clump of lacy, bright green leaves adorned with a dark stippled stripe down each leaf lobe. The foliage turns rich bronzy-purple in cold weather. In mid to late spring, charming pink-tinged flower buds gracefully evolve into starry, creamy white flowers on 3 in. long racemes (7 cm).
