Bergenia cordifolia ‘Miss Piggy’

A new introduction from the Proven Winners perennial collection and touted as an improvement on B. 'Sakura' from the Dragonfly Series. It forms a neat clump of large, rounded, leathery and glossy dark green leaves that are well suited to container growing. In early spring, dense clusters of bright deep pink flowers open from apple green calyces atop tall, branching green stems.

A US introduction that was briefly circulated in UK trade. It might still be available from some retailers or specialist nurseries but certainly isn’t common.
