The foliage has developed well, but not a single flower this year. I'll therefore reserve my judgement until next spring.

Description
Tiarella 'Pink Skyrocket' is a recent horticultural creation, appreciated for its abundant flowering and the pretty pink hue of its fluffy inflorescences, which are rather large for such a plant. In late spring, it produces a multitude of coral pink buds that open into tender pink flowers, before fading to cream-white. Its foliage is deeply lobed and reveals beautiful deep purple to brown veins on bright green, glossy lamina. It is usually evergreen, depending on the climate. This fairly fast-growing rhizomatous perennial plant is perfect for ground cover and adding colour to shady areas.
Tiarella 'Pink Skyrocket' belongs to the Saxifragaceae family. This American horticultural hybrid is likely derived from the species Tiarella wherryi, with remarkably finely lobed foliage. It is a cousin of Heuchera, with which it easily hybridises. It is native to North American woodlands. It will reach a mature size of 30cm (12in) in all directions. This foam flower forms a spreading clump. In May-June, the slightly fragrant individual flowers appear, densely arranged in large 'brushes' on stems of about 40cm (16in) in height, offering a beautiful gradient from pale coral-pink to cream-white, depending on their discolouration over time. The flowering lasts until July. Its evergreen foliage is its second asset. Its palmate and deeply lobed leaves measure 10cm (4in) in length and are nicely marked with dark, red to brown veins. This plant spreads by stolons and can quickly cover a significant area.
In the wild, Tiarella are usually found in wooded or mountainous environments, in cool and humus-rich soil. Tiarella 'Pink Skyrocket' will naturally find its place in moist shade with ferns, hostas, Impatiens balfouri, Solomon's seals, and astilbes. It can also be used as a waterside plant, to accompany Carex testacea, Rodgersia, or silver candles. It will also thrive in containers or pots in shade. It should be planted in well-drained compost without excessive fertiliser. Monitor watering in summer and reduce it in winter. Pots will need protection from cold winter winds.
Flower buds are formed during the summer, but they will only develop and bloom after being exposed to at least 10 weeks of cold temperatures the following year. Cold is therefore necessary for the maturation of this perennial.

Planting and care
Easy to maintain, Tiarella 'Pink Skyrocket' thrives in all types of moist to wet, well-drained, neutral to acidic soils. It can be planted in partial shade or dense shade (although the foliage colour may be less vibrant in this case). It is essential to avoid full sun and excess moisture in winter. Plant it in loose soil that retains moisture, and lighten it with coarse sand if it is too heavy, and consider using mulch. It does not tolerate very hot conditions. Once established, this perennial seems to tolerate dry shade under trees and bushes. It requires little maintenance. Pruning is not necessary unless the foliage is damaged or for rejuvenation purposes.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
