#ProPlantTips for Care:
Cold and drought tolerant and withstanding heat and humidity, nothing seems to faze this Perennial plant. Plant in either full shade or partial shade, but you’ll have better color and more flowers in more sun. Plant in enriched, well-drained soil that remains moderately, consistently moist. But once established, Coral Bells can be drought tolerant. In climates that are more arid or prone to drought, all plants appreciate a 3-4 inch thick layer of mulch to hold in moisture and keep the roots cool. Prune back foliage in early spring before new growth begins.
- Full Shade or Part Shade
- Moderate Moisture Needs & Mulched Bed
- Enriched Well-Drained Soil
- Prune Back in Early Spring
- Heat, Cold, Humidity-Resistant & Drought & Juglone Tolerant
