About this plant
Tiarella cordifolia 'Running Tapestry', commonly known as Foam Flower, is a delightful woodland perennial. Its deeply lobed, often bronze-tinted leaves form a dense, low-growing mat, providing year-round interest. In spring, delicate, foamy white flower spikes emerge above the foliage, creating a ethereal display reminiscent of frothy sea foam. These charming blooms add a touch of elegance to shaded gardens and attract early pollinators. This cultivar is particularly valued for its vigorous, mat-forming habit, making it an excellent choice for groundcover in shady areas, under trees, or along pathways. It's a low-maintenance plant that thrives in the right conditions, offering enduring beauty with minimal fuss.
