Paprika Coral Bells is an evergreen herbaceous perennial with a mounding habit grown for its vibrant basal foliage. The round-lobed leaves emerge with coral cherry tones that lighten to peachy shades in summer's heat before deepening again in fall and has burgundy undersides. Airy clusters of tiny white bell-like flowers that bloom from late spring into summer attracting butterflies. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
