Bergenia cordifolia Winter Glow

If you’re dealing with a dry shade area in your garden where many plants struggle, consider the resilient Bergenia cordifolia ‘Purpurea.’ Complement Bergenia with colorful companions like Geraniums and Daylily (Hemerocallis) in brighter areas or spots with varying light conditions. These flowering plants introduce more colors to your garden and offer diverse leaf textures.

These three plants are individually garden-worthy, workhorse plants but when used together they really shine, each bringing out the best in the others.
