Bergenia Cordifolia Purpurascens – Elephant’s Ears

Bergenia cordifolia purpurascens ‘Elephant’s Ears’ is a bold, evergreen perennial prized for its combination of striking foliage and and wonderful blooms. First, leathery, heart-shaped leaves emerge fresh green before deepening to rich burgundy and glowing wine-red tones when temperatures drop, making it especially valuable for autumn and winter colour when most plants struggle. In spring, sturdy stems rise above the foliage carrying clusters of bright pink flowers that provide a cheerful contrast to the dark leaves.
Exceptionally hardy and low maintenance, this Bergenia thrives in sun or partial shade and copes well with a wide range of soils, including more challenging conditions. It works beautifully as ground cover, edging for paths, or in woodland-style plantings, and pairs well with ferns, hostas, hellebores and spring bulbs. Reliable, architectural and seasonally dynamic, ‘purpurascens’ earns its place as a true garden workhorse with standout style.
Supplied in approx. 1 litre containers.
