Foamflower Pics

Post by pauhaus »

Here are some pics of my foamflowers just about to bloom.
I got these at Lowe's about 4 years ago and they put on a great show every year, I love 'em. The tag in the pot said they were Tiarella "Pink Brushes." Sorry the pics aren't in focus--I was rushing... :P

Thanks Snow and Renaldo. They are just starting and when they are all in bloom it really looks nice.

Thanks for the nice comments! :D

Just beautiful. That is one I don't have. Is it a clumper or a runner?

Thanks Patruska and Lucy :P

Hi Robyn, it is definitely a clumper. The clumps get bigger every year. If you can find it get it! :)

Nice! 8-) I'm going to have to pick that one up. I have Spring Symphony, Pink Skyrocket, Crow Feather and Neon Lights. I wasn't sure whether it was different enough from Spring Symphony and Pink Skyrocket but your clumps look pretty distinctive from them.

Something else for me to look for when I'm plant shopping this weekend...
