Bergenia Elephant Ears

Bergenia Marshmallow is selected for its lush foliage and pretty flowers. The leaves are large and arranged as a somewhat flat rosette. They tend to be glossy green but as temperatures cool, they develop red-bronze tones. Colourful, pale pink flowers are borne from late winter through spring on short stems as it grows to about 30 cm tall and 40 cm wide. Bergenia Marshmallow is a very fashionable and hardy plant that is ideal for border planting or mass planting as a groundcover. It is often used in cottage gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, or maintained in a container.

Bergenia Marshmallow care guide

Bergenia 'Marshmallow' is a charming, compact perennial prized for its soft light pink flowers that bloom in late winter to early spring and its rounded, glossy green foliage. This variety performs best in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil, though it is tolerant of a range of conditions, including poorer soils and some drought once established. The foliage may take on attractive reddish-bronze hues in cooler weather, adding seasonal interest. ‘Marshmallow’ is low maintenance—simply remove spent flower stalks and damaged leaves to keep the plant tidy. It is ideal for garden borders, mass planting, and ground cover, especially in woodland or semi-shaded areas. Additionally, it is resistant to deer and rabbits and offers an early food source for pollinators. Its compact habit and reliable performance make it an excellent choice for New Zealand gardens seeking year-round structure and soft colour.
