Bergenia ‘Rosi Klose’
Plant number: 1.105.290
Bergenia are incredibly hardy, and reliably evergreen throughout nearly the entire continent. Plants form a low clump of bold, leathery green leaves, which often turn bronze during winter. This compact selection has short stems of medium-pink flowers that tend to repeat bloom well into the summer, unlike most other varieties. The winter leaves are a valuable addition to cut flower bouquets. Most effective when mass planted or used as an edging along a walkway. Tolerates a wide range of soil conditions, in both sun or part shade. Easily divided in spring or early fall.
