The Foam Flower

This delicate beauty is the foam flower (Tiarella cordifolia) and at the moment it is flowering its tiny head off. I'm absolutely enchanted by it, especially its intricate detail and miniature stature. It has a shape similar to a much bigger spire like a delphinium or a hollyhock but in such tiny scale that it is fairy-like. Its colour is delicate too: palest pink with just a flush of a deeper pink. As if that wasn't enough it has beautiful leaves too which long outlast its pretty flowers.
