#ProPlantTips for Care:

The mounded Perennial has foliage that gleams in full shade and shines in full sunshine too, plus everything in between! Nothing could be easier! Make sure they get consistent water, and carefully pull the winter-dried leaves off in springtime. When planting, take care not to dig them in too deep, keep the upper inch of nursery soil showing above ground. We do recommend well-drained soil and Nature Hills Root Booster during planting time. The symbiotic ingredients make a world of difference over the entire life of these beautiful ground-hugging accent plants.

Add a 3-4 inch thick layer of mulch around to cover the root system. Then, scoot the mulch back away from directly touching the crown. Grow Northern Exposure™ Coral Bells across most of the United States. It's wildy cold-hardy and heat tolerant, and deer simply choose not to bother with them.
