One of my buys from the Malvern Spring Gardening Show. I've been looking out for a nice Epimedium for some time, and this is the most spectacular one I've ever seen! Unfortunately, it has one of those plant patent thingies, which means I won't be able to re-sell cuttings from her......but that can't stop me using her in plant swaps ;-)

Lovely. How hardy is it?

Janey - it is isn't it - those flowers are over an inch across too! And lots of them.
Chris - I googled it and it's hardy down to -10. It's a shade lover and apparently a good easy grower too :-)

Lovely plant, well chosen.

Thanks Sid. I can forget it then since we usually get at least -20 and often colder.

Oh, sorry Chris! :-(

Like a swarm of four-legged spiders ! This plant was well worth the wait (have added it to my list !). :~))
