Epimedium 'Amber Queen' has become very popular for its exquisite and prolific display of delicate spurred flowers in spring, each pale yellow flushed with amber, somewhat reminiscent of a jester's hat. Its neat, heart-shaped foliage is equally delicious, emerging fresh green in spring suffused with red before maturing to darker green.
Happiest if planted in a moist, humus-rich soil with some drainage in light dappled shade, 'Amber Queen' can also tolerate slightly drier soil conditions, neatly solving that difficult conundrum 'What can I underplant trees with?' Works for shrubs too. Tough and hardy if protected from cold desiccating winds, it bulks up slowly, keeping the weeds down at the same time.
