Bergenia ‘Eden’s Dark Margin’
elephant's ears 'Dark Margin'
£12.99
2 Litre Pot
Although average in size, ‘Dark Margin’ packs a punch. Cerise pink petals hang from red stems in spring above new, deep-red foliage, which later transforms to green and then deep maroon edges in winter.

Care Notes
On arrival, unpack your new garden additions, and, if needed, give a light watering. Your plants are containerised and established, so you can get planting, as long as the ground is not waterlogged or frozen (in these situations, keep your plants in a sheltered position while you wait). For the first year, keep an eye on moisture availability, while roots settle into their new home.
For herbaceous perennials, dig a hole, allowing 2 inches either side of the pot width. Try and ensure you plant your new arrival at the same level in the ground as it had been sitting at in its pot.
