Timeless Treasure Coral Bells is an evergreen herbaceous perennial with a basal mound of small pewter lobed leaves with a silver sheen and dark veins. Airy clusters of tiny rosy pink bell-like flowers bloom on tall mahogany spires in early summer and again in late summer attracting butterflies. Grows best in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
