Coral Bells are wonderful hardy perennials (they come back each year). As with most perennials they grow best in well draining soil. Our Coral Bells are some of the best available on the market today. We search wide and far for the best performing, most colorful varieties that are reproduced vegetatively. Our plants are vigorous hybrids not inferior seedlings. Most varieties go through seasonal color changes. All of our plants are of blooming age/size.

Our plants have been over-wintered here in the upper Midwest to ensure strength and hardiness and to encourage blooming the first year in your garden. Our plants are grown outdoors where Mother Nature helps us produce the best plants possible. Our potted plants can be planted at your convenience, just keep them outdoors and watered until you are ready to put them into the ground. We include complete planting instructions with all orders. This plant is ready for your garden!

Our plant photos are a representation of mature specimens. The plants we sell are not full grown but they are well established and happily on their way to becoming all they can be. Plants shown in decorative pots are for display only, plants are not shipped in a decorative pot but rather a standard commercial square plastic pot
