Why you need this plant:        A clump-forming perennial indigenous to this region, 'Arpeggio' produces spikes of light pink flowers beginning in spring.  Foliage is maple-shaped and is marked with a maroon spot in the center of the leaf.

 
Planting Info:       Foamflowers thrive in any area with partial to full shade and a moist soil, but will tolerate brief periods of drought.  In the fall, cut the stems down to the base but leave the foliage to protect new buds that will appear in spring.  Fertilize in early spring before early growth comes on and mulch with manure or leaf mold to contribute to the humus rich soil that foamflowers crave.
