The Bergenia ‘Bressingham Ruby’, a Blooms of Bressingham plant, also known at Bergenia Pigsqueak or Heartleaf, is a popular ground cover that is great for weed smothering. Being a vigorous spreader, it is great in rock gardens or as a border plant. The paddle shaped leaves turn burgundy in cold weather with short clusters of pink flowers on stout stems. The deep rosy red flowers show from mid to late spring and are a great contrast with its foliage. Bergenia ‘Bressingham Ruby’ should be planted in full shade, but will tolerate some morning sun. It has a plant height of 14” and a spread of 12” wide. Try planting Bergenia ‘Bressingham Ruby’ with Japanese Painted Fern or Pulmonairia ‘Mrs. Moon’. It is definitely a perennial that should not be left out of any garden.
