Bergenia

are incredibly sturdy plants, and some varieties will grow in temperatures from -35F to 115F. They are unfussy about soil and will tolerate nearly any soil condition as long as it has decent drainage. The leaves stay a glossy green color most of the year, except in cooler climates, where the color may change to bronze or red in winter.

The flowers arise gracefully on stems which resemble rhubarb stalks; the flowers range from fuchsia to bubblegum, to pinkish white, and they are said to attract hummingbirds, which isn’t surprising given the color and shape of the blooms.

Bergenia is commonly called “pigsqueak” because of the sound it makes when two leaves are rubbed together. In recent years, many new varieties have emerged from breeders who’ve attempted to create different colors of bloom, more petite sizes which fit more easily between shrubs, and plants with a clumping habit which are less likely to flop or become leggy.
