This patch of bergenia was one of the few things growing in a much-neglected yard when I moved into my house. (I'm pretty sure I didn't plant those tulips, either.) This part of my back shade garden is super low-maintenance and I love it! I can't recommend bergenia enough for a low-maintenance garden.

I havent, but they are obviously happy where they are. This year I put some compost between the plants but I havent done that in the last 5 years and they have been going strong. This spot is not as dry as other places in my garden though, so maybe thats why.
