VINTAGE™ 'Bouquet' Bergenia

Bergenia VINTAGE™ ‘Bouquet’ is a compact perennial with glossy evergreen leaves and abundant clusters of large lavender-pink flowers. [Terra Nova](https://www.terranovanurseries.com/product/bergenia-vintage-bouquet/) describes it as long-lived in gardens and particularly suitable for containers. Its compact foliage reaches about 9 inches tall and 12 inches wide, with flowers at roughly the same height. ## Landscape use Plant it near the front of a border, along a path, or in a container where the spring flowers can be seen close up. The evergreen leaves provide structure after flowering, while the VINTAGE™ series is selected for compact habits and glossy foliage. The breeder lists full sun to part shade and USDA zones 4–9. ## Siting and water Use moist, well-drained soil and avoid sites that remain waterlogged. The [RHS](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/bergenia/growing-guide) notes that bergenias are adaptable to sun or partial shade and many soil types; deep shade can reduce flowering. Moderate watering is listed by [Terra Nova](https://www.terranovanurseries.com/product/bergenia-vintage-bouquet/) for garden conditions. ## Maintenance Water after planting and during prolonged dry spells while the plant establishes. Remove damaged foliage or faded stems as needed. Older clumps can be divided if they become bare in the center or flower less freely.
