Name: Hairy bergenia (Bergenia ciliata)
Zone: 5 to 8
Size: 1 foot tall and 1 to 2 feet wide
Shde Tolerance: Dappled to partial shade
THis is the most drought-tolerant bergenia I've found. Its leaves do not resemble
those of other bergenias; they look like the leaves of a giant African violet. Mature
plant will send up stems of white or pink flowers from spring to early summer, but
the real reason to grow hairy bergenia is its foliage.
