Epimedium x versicolor 'Sulphureum' - BARRENWORT 'SULPHUREUM'

Product Code: EPI-X-SULPHU
Shipping: Calculated at Checkout
$9.99

One of the best groundcovering Epimediums - grows faster than other hybrids. True dense groundcover, that reliably suppresses weeds.

Very long-lived perennial, work horse for dry shade! Award of Garden merit by Royal Horticultural Society (UK).

0.75' tall x 1-1.5' wide clumps. Flowers with short spurs, pale sulphur yellow, in April. Compound leaves emerge reddish tinged, mature to green and turn reddish in fall.

Half shade, dappled shade, full shade. Average soil with average moisture (medium) , medium-dry to dry. Don't plant in wet or waterlogged soil.

All Epimediums are slow growers, even this one is, but in comparison with others, it is significantly faster.

Easy to grow plant, pest and disease free. Leaves will stay evergreen (in warmer zones) to semi evergreen. The only maintenance is cutting the laves back at the end of winter - so you remove freeze-damaged leaves, which also helps with better flower show.

Epimedium × versicolor, sometimes commonly called bicolor barrenwort, is a cross between E. grandiflorum and E. pinnatum subsp. colchicum. Sometimes called bicolor barrenwort.

Hardy in zones 5 to 9.

Deer and rabbit resistant.

Best in shade or half shade garden. Combine with shade lovers like Asarum, Bergenia, Brunnera, Caulophyllum, Chrysogonum, Dicentra, Geranium, Hosta, Iris cristata, I. tectorum, Kirengoshoma, Omphalodes, Polemonium, Phlox stolonifera, Phlox divaricata, Primula, Polygonatum, Pulmonaria, Stylophorum, Thalictrum, Tricyrtis, Waldsteinia and spring ephemerals like Claytonia, Mertensia, Jeffersonia, Podophyllum, Uvullaria, Trillium and grasses like Carex, Calamagrostis or Hakonechloa.

Pot size : square 3.5" x 5" deep pot
