Epimedium diphyllum Variegatum Aster I'm not making this up

I'm not making this up

easy-to-grow species from Yunnan

so don't miss out

it's probably not one that will ever be appreciated by the marigold and impatiens crowd

This is a tidiness issue and not a health of the plant issue

Epimedium diphyllum Variegatum Aster I'm not making this upVariegation Alert! This unusual selection of the Japanese native Epimedium diphyllum makes a short 8" clump, composed of lung shaped, grey green leaves, heavily speckled with white. The deer resistant clump resembles a bad case of auto body shop overspray, topped in early spring with clusters of tiny white bells. The pattern is most vivid before the heat of summer. A variegated epimedium who'd have thought?
