Barrenwort 'Lemon Zest'

Epimedium 'Lemon Zest' is a delightful Barrenwort offering bright, clear yellow flowers that dance above elegant foliage in mid-spring. This semi-evergreen perennial forms a neat clump, typically reaching 30-40cm in height and spreading gently. The delicate flowers are held on slender stems, creating a airy effect. New foliage often emerges with attractive bronze tints, maturing to green. H6 hardy, it thrives in partial to full shade and humus-rich, well-drained soil, tolerating dry shade once established. An excellent, low-maintenance groundcover for challenging shady spots.
