Tiarella ‘Sea Foam’
*** PLEASE NOTE ***
This plant is no longer for sale directly from TERRA NOVA® Nurseries. However, it may still be available through one of our Licensees or Retail Sources. |
The beautifully cut and marked leaves are secondary to the massive display of creamy-white flowers which virtually hide the foliage for weeks. We have no other pure white flowering Tiarella that is so floriferous. Nice compact clumping habit and winter bronzing. Brought back by popular demand.
