Bergenia cordifolia 'Bach' | Bach Bergenia

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Bergenia cordifolia 'Bach' produces upright clusters of rich rosy pink flowers in early to mid-spring, bringing welcome color as the garden awakens from winter. Large, rounded, glossy green leaves form a dense evergreen mound that develops handsome burgundy and bronze tones during the colder months, extending seasonal interest well beyond bloom time. Thick foliage provides bold texture throughout the year, while sturdy flowering stems elevate the blossoms above the leafy clumps.

Native to the mountains of Siberia and Central Asia, this cultivated selection was developed for its dependable flowering and attractive evergreen foliage. It is well suited to woodland gardens, shaded borders, foundation plantings, edging, and mass plantings, where its colorful blooms and year-round foliage provide lasting structure and ornamental appeal.
