Description
Tiarella 'Arpeggio' is a hybrid Tiarella variety distinguished by a beautiful foliage reminiscent of some maples. It forms a mound of deeply cut and lobed light green leaves, marked with a darker central spot, which take on pretty pink-purple tones at the first cold. It also seduces with its spring and feathery flowering, in the form of spikes of very pale pink turning white. This very hardy perennial plant, mostly evergreen, spreads laterally to form an excellent groundcover in damp shade.
Tiarella 'Arpeggio' belongs to the Saxifragaceae family. This horticultural hybrid is likely derived from the species Tiarella trifoliata var. laciniata, with remarkably finely cut foliage. It is a cousin of Heuchera native to North American undergrowth. The 'Arpeggio' variety will reach 30 cm (12in) in all directions, forming a spreading tuft with evergreen and colorful foliage, its first asset. Its palmate and deeply lobed leaves measure 10 cm (4in) in length and are nicely embossed and marked with a dark central spot, variable depending on the seasons, from dark green to purplish on a light green background. In winter, they turn almost entirely pink-red. In April-May, the flowers appear, densely distributed in brush on stems of about 30 cm (12in) in height, offering a beautiful gradient from pale pink to white, depending on their discoloration over time. The flowering is particularly long for the species, lasting from spring to early summer. This plant spreads by stolons and can quickly cover a large area.
In the wild, Tiarellas are generally found in wooded or mountainous environments, in damp and humus-rich soil. Tiarella 'Arpeggio' will naturally find its place in wet undergrowth alongside ferns, hostas, Impatiens balfouri, Solomon's seals, and astilbes. It can also be used as a waterside plant, to accompany Rodgersia. It will also thrive in shaded pots or containers. It should be planted in a well-drained potting mix without excessive fertilizer, with watering monitored in summer. Pots will need winter protection.
The flower buds are formed during summer, but they will only develop and bloom after being exposed to a minimum of 10 weeks of cold temperatures the following year. Cold is therefore necessary for the flowering of this perennial.

Planting and care
Easy to maintain, Tiarella 'Arpeggio' thrives in all moist to wet, well-drained, neutral to acidic soils. It can be planted in partial shade or dense shade (although the foliage colour may appear duller). It must be protected from full sun and excessive winter moisture. Plant it in loose soil that retains moisture, lightening it with coarse sand if it is too heavy, and consider using mulch. It does not tolerate very hot conditions. This perennial seems to tolerate dry shade under trees and bushes. It requires little maintenance and pruning is not necessary unless the foliage is damaged or to rejuvenate the plant.

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.
