Sugar and Spice is one of the best foamflower introductions from Terra Nova Nurseries. Plants form 1' wide clumps of shiny, deeply dissected leaves with a center splotch. In mid-late spring, they are covered with 1' tall spikes of very pale pink budded, white flowering brushes. Sugar and Spice forms slowly expanding to trailing clumps and would be suitable along a path or in the front of a shady garden with good soil. It differs from Pink Skyrocket by having whiter flowers and by spreading faster. Great companions include Celandine Poppy, ferns, and Blue Phlox. Cat# 1558
