Description
Tiarella 'Angel Wings' is a variety of small tiarella that stands out for the beauty of its foliage. Strongly cut and lobed, very nicely layered and heavily marked with brown-red patterns on the top, its leaves somewhat resemble wings. Its generous spring flowering, with a frothy appearance, in spikes ranging from dark pink to pale pink, adds to the charm of this pretty perennial ground cover in fresh woodland. This double award-winning variety in England, at Chelsea and by the RHS, is also a gem for the terrace.
Tiarellas belong to the large Saxifragaceae family. They are close cousins of heucheras, native to the eastern United States, as well as to China for some species. The 'Angel Wing' tiarella has a very attractive deeply cut bright green foliage, somewhat reminiscent of the leaves of certain maples. The centre of the leaf and the veins are heavily marked with brown-red, giving them a very graphic two-tone appearance. The plant develops well-arranged leaves, one above the other, forming a compact and neat mound, which will reach about 25 cm (10in) tall and 30 cm (12in) wide. Between April and June, the plant produces multiple light and airy flowering stems, with initially dark pink buds giving way to tiny pale pink star-shaped flowers with prominent stamens that are appreciated by pollinators. The plant then reaches about 35-40 cm (14-16in) tall. In autumn, the foliage often takes on beautiful bronze hues and frequently persists if the winter is not too harsh. It is also capable of withstanding short periods of drought once established.
Tiarella 'Angel Wings' spreads slowly through its rootstock, in humus-rich soil, not too heavy, and above all well-drained. It is not invasive but can be divided. These are conditions that can be found in woodland, at the base of bushes for example. In heavy soil, its longevity may be compromised. In this case, you can regularly add dead leaves to improve your soil.
Planted en masse, it will form a beautiful carpet alongside Heucheras (which belong to the same family) such as Heuchera 'Caramel' or 'Magnum', ferns such as Dryopteris erythrosora and Polystichum setiferum, or even with other groundcovers like Asarum caudatum. It can also be grown in a pot, in a rich, well-draining substrate that does not dry out too much.

Planting and care
Easy to maintain, Tiarella 'Angel Wings' thrives in all damp, well-drained soils, preferably neutral to acidic. It should be planted in partial shade or dense shade (the colour of the foliage may become dull). It is imperative to avoid full sun and excess moisture in winter. You should plant it in loose soil that retains moisture, lightening it with coarse sand if it is too heavy, and possibly provide mulch. It does not tolerate very hot conditions. This perennial seems to tolerate dry shade under trees and bushes. It requires little maintenance and pruning is not necessary except in case of damaged foliage or for rejuvenation.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
The harvest period stated on our website applies to regions in USDA zones 8b to 9a (East, South-East and southern coast: Eastern Leinster, County Wexford and County Waterford, Cork region: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Cork). It will vary depending on where you live:
- In the Midlands and the inland plains: the Middle Shannon Valley, Westmeath, Offaly, Longford, Cavan and Monaghan (Athlone, Mullingar, Tullamore, Longford, Cavan, Monaghan), in USDA zones 8a to 8b, the harvest will be delayed by 1 to 2 weeks compared with the dates given. Far from the moderating influence of the sea, these plains experience late frosts right up until the end of spring. The heavy, peaty soils warm slowly here, and damp patches form pockets of frost. Wait until the soil has dried out and warmed up before planting, and protect young plants with a fleece on clear nights.
- In the Atlantic West and North-West: Kerry, Clare, Galway, Connemara, Mayo, Sligo and Donegal (Killarney, Ennis, Galway, Westport, Sligo, Letterkenny), in USDA zones 8b to 10a, the harvest will be delayed by 1 to 3 weeks compared with the dates given. Summers here are cloudier, rainier and windier than in the east, which slows down ripening and encourages late blight and other fungal diseases. Kerry and Clare are at the lower end of the range, whilst Mayo and Donegal, which are cooler and more exposed, are at the upper end. However, the mild coastal winters mean that leafy vegetables and root vegetables can be harvested at dates close to those indicated, or even earlier: shelter crops from the wind with hedges and grow heat-loving plants in greenhouses or polytunnels.
- In the highlands, above 200 m: the Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, the Galtee and Comeragh ranges, the Twelve Bens in Connemara and the Donegal highlands, in USDA zones 7b to 8a, the harvest will be delayed by 2 to 4 weeks compared with the dates given, depending on the altitude, taking care to beat the first early frosts, which may occur as early as the start of autumn. Wind, constant damp and late frosts lasting into early summer significantly shorten the growing season. Opt for sheltered, south-facing slopes, early-maturing varieties and growing under cover.
Depending on your garden’s aspect, these variations can range from one to two weeks. A frost-prone valley floor delays the harvest, whilst a south-facing wall brings it forward.
