$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Bergenia ‘Bressingham Salmon’ is a compact perennial valued for its glossy, rounded foliage and soft spring flower color. The leathery leaves emerge deep green and often deepen to bronze or reddish tones during cooler months. In early to mid spring, sturdy stems support dense clusters of salmon-pink flowers, each bloom showing warm peach undertones that gently lighten as they mature.

Introduced in England by the Bressingham Gardens breeding program, this cultivar is well suited to borders, pathways, and shaded garden beds. Its tidy habit provides dependable structure, while the long-lasting blooms offer early seasonal interest and pair naturally with spring bulbs and woodland perennials.
