Noted for its compact size, Bergenia ‘Flirt’ is a small, clump-forming evergreen perennial boasting erect clusters of bright rosy-pink flowers atop thick red stems in early-mid spring. Very floriferous, a one-year-old plant can have over thirty flower spikes in the spring. They rise above a rosette of upright, thick, glossy leaves. Deep green in spring and summer, the handsome leaves turn bronze-red in fall and winter, providing year-round interest. Low maintenance and easy to grow, this Bergenia selection is ideal for containers, front of borders, and mixed beds.
