Epimedium x versicolor
‘Sulphureum’
at Digging Dog
Barrenwort or Bishop’s Hat
Dense and leafy Epimedium is one of our most successful ground covers for the moist woodland setting. New heart-shaped leaves on wiry stems unfurl in spring with a rosy, marbled coloration that fades to green as summer approaches. In autumn, the marbling returns in coral and copper, enduring mild winters.
The tiny, unusual flowers (Bishop’s Hats) are held above the foliage in airy sprays, and resemble miniature Columbines. Durable and long-lived, Epimediums can adapt to drier conditions once established, spreading slowly and steadily. Both flowers and foliage are prized for small arrangements. Epimedium x versicolor ‘Sulphureum’ 
Visitors are always delighted by the pale, clear yellow flowers rising above leathery, heart-shaped foliage. This is one of the best Epimediums for fall color. We plant it with early blooming Pulmonarias or Brunneras.
Blooms March. Size: 12" high x 12" wide; hardy to zone 5. Epimedium x versicolor Sulphureum (p-0063)
