Bergenia ciliata ‘Dumbo’
Plant number: 1.105.370This species of Bergenia is very unique and much sought after by collectors. The large, rounded leaves (think Dumbo-sized elephant ears) are covered on both sides with soft, downy hairs. Short spikes of flowers appear in spring, beginning the palest pink and then darkening to a medium pink. Unlike most forms, this species is deciduous and will die right back for the winter. Protect from early spring frosts by mulching with leaves in late fall. Clumps are slow to get large, but can be easily divided in early spring. In mild winter regions this makes a superb container plant. Further details for |
