Notes: Find your garden's fairytale ending with 'Happily Ever After' Bergenia. This perennial Pigsqueak will impress early in the season with large clusters of near-white flowers on tall, sturdy scapes. The stems of the flower scapes are a dark red, providing contrast between the flowers and foliage. Dark green leaves grow to a massive size, with a rippled edge to each leaf. While this plant is capable of growing from full sun to shade, it will thrive when given additional moisture in full sun and afternoon shade in the south.
