Product Description

Grows in sun and shade
Glossy, leathery, evergreen foliage
Clusters of magenta-pink flowers
Drought tolerant and deer resistant
Provides year-round interest

Tough perennial ground cover provides year-round interest—and grows in sun and shade! Growing 12-18 in. tall, Bergenia offers clusters of magenta-pink flowers on erect stems in early spring. Glossy, leathery, rounded leaves in the summer turn to a bronzy, orange-reddish hue in the fall. The evergreen leaves provide color during the winter months. A durable plant, Bergenia tolerates most soil conditions and, once established, short periods of drought. Deer tend to pass it by. Zones 4-9.
