'Evening Gown' is prized for its incredible ruffled leaves, a feature that makes it a welcome texture for any landscape or container. Huge 6", glossy black leaves have ruffled margins and form a substantial mounded habit. Best color and performance in part shade. Substantial flower scapes hold pink buds that open to white flowers. Foliage grows 12-14" tall with a spread of 10-14". The flowers get 18-20" tall. Hardy to Zone 4.
Coral bells are easy to grow and blend easily with most other perennials in the landscape. Because of their low, mounding habit, they are often used as edging along paths or in containers. Try cutting a few of the tall flower scapes for fresh bouquets.
