The charming springtime spikes of white flowers tinged with pink would be reason enough to grow this woodland perennial. Combine its blooms with its exquisite foliage and you have a true winning plant with season-long interest. Fingerpaint Foamflower’s leaves are deeply lobed, bright green, and have a uniquely patterned blotch of burgundy in the center. Its semi-running habit enables it to fill in some of the open spots in the shade garden. It does need a soil enriched with organic matter and periodic moisture to perform its best.
