Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |

This hybrid Coral Bells selection is a terrific choice for adding a touch of colour towards the front of a border. The lobed leaves are an attractive minty grey-green with contrasting dark veins. Showy sprays of rose-pink flowers appear in early summer. Protect from hot afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch. Remove any winter-burned leaves in the spring, otherwise no pruning is required. A Terra Nova Nurseries introduction. USPP#18009: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
