Hopscotch Coral Bells is a compact evergreen herbaceous perennial with a clumping habit grown for its colorful foliage. Theses maple-like basal leaves emerge deep red and matures to bronze green by summer, then fades to burgundy bronze. Tiny creamy white bell-like flowers on tall spires in early summer attracting butterflies. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
