About Coral Bells

Arching sprays of fragrant flowers held well above dense mounds of foliage, late spring into summer. Most are grown for their dramatic, lobed leaves, but some have showy red or pink flowers. Red-flowered varieties are good for hummingbirds. Dark-leaved ­varieties are the most sun-tolerant. Deer- and rabbit-resistant.
