Product Details

Product Details

Arriving with the Daffodils, Tulips, Hellebores, and Primroses of early spring, Bergenia ‘Fairytale Romance’ adds broad, gleaming green foliage and clusters of relatively large, 1” sweet pink flowers to the show. Mass these perennials to form a full season, evergreen ground cover, or use them at the edge of a border or patio, in rock gardens, and in containers. PPAF

The small Asian genus Bergenia provides one of the most distinctive and attractive foliage plants for partial shade. Plants are extremely hardy and long-lived when they get gritty, well-drained soil and protection from afternoon sun, and a sizable cluster offers a handsome pool of texture and color through the season. The absolute best value is secured in situations where the foliage remains evergreen through the winter. In our experience, that means Zone 6 and warmer, or a spot in colder areas where a microclimate approximates these conditions.

HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED

The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.

WHEN WE SHIP

We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the green Shipping Details box for each item. Please supply a street address for delivery. Kindly contact us with two weeks notice, if you'll be away at the expected time of delivery.
