Foamflower

Prized for its attractive cut-leaf foliage that is dark green with heavy maroon markings, turning deep purple in winter, this nativar resides in the ancestry of most cut-leaf forms available today. It is a semi-running form, spreading slowly by short stolons, forming a dense carpet of 6" tall foliage. Lightly fragrant, pale pink flower spikes appear early and are long lasting. Introduced by: Primrose Path
