Bergenia is a low, laterally spreading, herbaceous ground cover that produces new plants from short underground stems. Very durable and slow spreading. For these reasons, it is well suited for use as a general ground cover or facing plant form small to moderate sized areas, particulary in locations where its splendid foliage and interesting flowers will be visible to passersby.

Bergenia has thick, leathery, shiny, evergreen leaves that are not only large, they are colored a very deep shade of green and are often used in floral arrangements. Bergenia perform happily in any well-drained, slightly acidic to slightly alkaline soil. They tolerate short periods of drought, yet perform best if the soil is kept moderately moist. Thrive in full sun to light shade. One of the truly great flower seeds.
