Dale's Strain Coral Bells is a native evergreen herbaceous perennial with a mounding habit grown for its basal foliage.  The lobed leaves emerge chartreuse with olive green marbling and green veins that matures to silvery blue with dark purple veins.  Airy clusters of tiny white bell-like flowers bloom on spires in late spring to early summer attracting butterflies.  Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.  

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Low maintenance.  Potential issues include powdery mildew, rust, leaf spot, and frost heaving of roots if winter temperatures fluctuate widely.  Will grow slowly in heavy shade.

LANDSCAPE USES:  Accents or Group Plantings, Borders, Woodland Gardens, Naturalized Areas, Native Gardens, Rock Gardens, and Containers.

COMPANION PLANTS:   Lenten Rose, Hosta, Painted Fern
