Purple Palace Coral Bells is an evergreen herbaceous perennial with a mounding habit grown for its dramatic basal foliage. The broad maple-like leaves are brilliant deep purple with beat red undersides, with the colors fading to bronze-green in hot summers. Airy clusters of tiny blush white bell-like flowers bloom on spires in early summer attracting butterflies. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
