'''Heartleaved Foamflower''' or '''Allegheny Foamflower''' (''Tiarella cordifolia''), is a [[herbaceous]] plant commonly used as shrubbery. It grows in most kinds of soil and blooms from April to June. {{Inc| Tiarella cordifolia, Linn. Foam-flower. A handsome native perennial, forming a tufted mass, 6-12 in. high, of broadly ovate lobed and serrate lvs. and simple erect racemes of white fls. borne well above the foliage in May. Fls. about 1/4 in. across; petals oblong, clawed, somewhat exceeding the white calyx-lobes. In rich, moist woodland, Nova Scotia to Ont., south to Ga.—An elegant plant well worthy of general cult. It is a lover of cool shaded places and of rich moist soil. It will do well, however, in ordinary soil and flower freely in a half-shaded place, but the varied lf.-markings of bronzy red and other signs of luxuriance are not brought out to their fullest extent except with moisture, coolness and a fairly rich soil. The plant forces well and easily in a coolhouse for early spring flowering. It is tenacious of life and generally easy to manage. Var. albiflora, Hort., is a fine white-fld. form. Var. purpurea, Hort. (T. purpurea, Hort.), is a purple-fld. form, of which the following variations are also offered in the trade: purpurea major, with salmon-rose or wine-red fls.; purpurea major compacta, a more compact grower with bronzy chamois-colored fls.; purpurea marmorata, with very attractive bronze foliage passing to blackish green and marbled with purple: fls. very numerous, maroon. {{SCH}} }} ==Cultivation== {{edit-cult}} ===Propagation=== {{edit-prop}} ===Pests and diseases=== {{edit-pests}} ==Varieties== ''T. c.'' var.
