Pigsqueak

Came across a very fine stand of pigsqueak yesterday afternoon, at the Tooting end of Garratt Lane, the best I have seen for some time, rather superior to that in our own front garden. A pity about the bits of litter, but it seemed a little busy to remove them.

A plant which might be known to you as elephants' ears, bergenia crassifolia or even bergenia cordifolia. There is also an uncertain link to the family of the saxifragaceae.
