Driveway Bergenias

The driveway Bergenias are beautiful plants. Throughout the year they provide neat, evergreen foliage, then in spring deep cherry-pink flowers appear. This is the famous Bressingham Ruby variety.

The leaves of the Bergenias in the driveway border are always a little reddish. In the middle of winter they will be beautifully dark. I've planted these at the edge of the border so they can fall naturally over the stones.

A brown tussock is planted directly behind the Bergenias and flops its hair-like strands all about. This area is quite dry, and these foliage plants perform well here.

Bressingham Ruby Bergenias are known for rich autumn and winter colouring on their leaves.
