Tiarella ‘Sugar and Spice’ has shiny, mid-green leaves with striking crimson markings, making for a compact and dense carpet of foliage throughout the summer.
In late spring, slender stems rise up and hold spikes of tiny star-shaped, blush white flowers. This is a brilliant plant for covering moist spots beneath trees, and edging paths in shady parts of the garden.

Tiarella thrives best in cool, moist, humus-rich soil and prefers partial to full shade, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Protect the plant from excessive winter moisture to prevent root rot. It can spread freely, making it an excellent choice for ground cover in shaded areas.
Trim back lightly after the flowering period, and remove any dead or damaged leaves to tidy the plant and encourage new growth, in late winter or early spring.
