description for "Perennials: Bergenia cordifolia"
The huge oblate leaves of bergenia provide a strong contrast for most any other plant, especially ferns and dicentras. The flowers are held in irregular clusters atop thick stalks. No care is necessary. For best results, locate in no more than half shade. B. cordifolia is from Siberia and is a slow spreader.
