Bergenia 'Bressingham White' | Bressingham White Bergenia

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Bergenia ‘Bressingham White’ is a clump-forming perennial with broad, glossy leaves that create a bold evergreen presence through much of the year. The foliage emerges rich green, often developing reddish or bronze tones during colder months. In early to mid spring, upright stems carry rounded clusters of pure white flowers, each bloom accented by pale green centers and soft pink-tinged buds before opening.

Developed at Bressingham Gardens in England, this cultivar performs well in borders, woodland edges, and shaded paths. Its dense foliage provides structure year-round, while the early blossoms complement spring bulbs and bring gentle brightness to partially shaded plantings.
