SHADE PERENNIALS

Bergenia pacumbis x ciliata 'Size Queen' - Huge fuzzy green paddles turn red in autumn and may be evergreen in southern climes. Imagine huge, stunning winter-red tongues of leaves. Clustered pink flowers on thick stems rise in spring. Gorgeous in shade, dappled light with perhaps some morning sun - avoid hot afternoon blaze. Plant in fertile, moisture-retentive soil. Established pot grown perennial from division.
