Blondie Coral Bells is a compact evergreen herbaceous perennial with a mounding habit grown for its dramatic basal foliage. The broad-lobed leaves emerge various shades of warm caramel orange, red, and gold before earning bronze and purple hues in fall. Airy clusters of tiny creamy yellow bell-like flowers bloom on vivid red spires from late spring into fall attracting butterflies. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
