Close'Winter Glow' Bergenia goes by many names like Heart-leaved Bergenia, Pig Squeak, and Winterglut, but that just goes to show how popular a plant it is. The large leaves are a glossy green for most of the year, and take on a bronzy red tone in the fall and winter. Deep pink flower spikes rise above the mounding foliage in spring, making it perfect in borders and in mass plantings as a ground cover. Tolerant of some sun, bergenia is the go-to plant for shady gardens.
