Description
Epimedium davidii
Height x Spread: 25cm x 30cm
Small, bright yellow flowers like jesters' hats dance on wiry stems above a mound of heart-shaped evergreen foliage, copper when young maturing to green and gently ragged around the edges.
Originating from Sichuan Province in China, this is a quite unfussy, easy to grow plant. It prefers a rich, moist but free-draining soil in partial shade, but can also cope with more sun and a marginally drier soil. Great for providing year round interest in that difficult shady spot of the garden.
