It grows best in organically rich, evenly moist, well-drained soil, and is notably tolerant of juglone (the growth-inhibiting compound produced by black walnut trees), making it a good choice near those trees. In cold-winter climates, mulch after the ground freezes to prevent the shallow-rooted crowns from heaving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLarge, glossy, star- to maple-shaped leaves range from deep olive-green to a rich purplish-bronze, with a striking metallic amethyst-purple underside visible in the loosely mounded clump. Tall, airy flower scapes bearing tiny cream to pinkish-white blooms rise well above the foliage in summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe small tubular flowers attract hummingbirds and bees over a long summer bloom period, while the plant's tough, slightly leathery foliage is generally left alone by deer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA dependable choice for woodland gardens, rock gardens, shaded borders, and edging along pathways; also performs well in containers. Combine with ferns, hostas, and astilbe for a classic layered shade planting, or use as a color echo alongside other purple- or burgundy-foliaged perennials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-11ce6634-7fff-4e8e-c81b-783a3a7e9048\"\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/5440\/9961\/files\/Screenshot_2025-12-23_090745.png?v=1766509681\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fred Meyer","offers":[{"title":"3.5\" pot","offer_id":51651320578281,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/5440\/9961\/files\/Screenshot2026-08-09154044.png?v=1786315327","url":"https:\/\/www.tanagergreenhouse.com\/products\/palace-purple-select-coral-bells","provider":"Tanager, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
