Tiarella wherryi

Sugar-Scoop, False Mitrewort

Perfect for woodland gardens or other shady places, these subtle, mostly North American natives, provide tidy evergreen foliage and spiky sprays of tiny white or pink flowers. The foliage of some varieties colors in fall. Mix with Trilliums, ferns, Campanula and Bleeding Heart. Easy to grow, but does not like soggy winter soil. Not all nurseries carry these, so call around.

For winter color, the 3½-inch-wide, heart-shaped leaves turn red. It has no stolons and is slower to spread.
