Bergenia Dragonfly Angel Kiss
Best low-maintenance perennial for busy gardeners seeking year-round shade-loving color.
This is the ultimate low-effort solution for filling dark, neglected corners of your garden. While it lacks the dramatic height of showier perennials, its ability to survive deer, drought, and deep shade while shifting from glossy green to rich winter plum makes it an indispensable workhorse.
