Epimedium 'Songbirds'

1 GALLON POT 

(Barrenwort)

Zone 4

Shade

A wonderful dense groundcover plant for the hard to plant dry shade area. They will take a couple of years to reach a mature size, plants are long-lived and very sturdy. Old leaves should be pruned to the ground in late winter to show the flowers best effect. Drought tolerant once established. 

One of the most floriferous Epimedium selections out there, according to the hybridizer, Tony Avent. Golden yellow flowers have small rose sepals, although at a glance they appear yellow. Its deep green lance-shaped leaves have some sporadic spotting. This variety is a season extender: it flowers later than other offerings and has the longest inflorescence of any we offer.

Yellow flowers on green foliage from may to June. 16"H x 26"
