Monrovia® Southern Comfort Coral Bells is an evergreen herbaceous perennial with a clumping habit and bold foliage of various colors.  The round-lobes leaves are a warm cinnamon-peach which ages to burnished copper in spring, with a brief stint of turning green in summer before returning to its spring copper that deepens further to amber in fall.  Tiny creamy white bell-like flowers on tall spires in mid summer attracting butterflies.  Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.  Southern Comfort does well in the Southern humidity in summer.
