Epimedium x 'Dream Catcher'

‘Dream Catcher’ enchants with rosy-red sepals that open to reveal large, sunny yellow wings—an eye-catching contrast that brightens shady spaces. The bright green foliage takes on a bronze tint in cooler weather, providing multi-season interest. In spring, long stems carry abundant sprays of unique, jester hat-like flowers for several weeks. Though slow to establish, mature clumps are striking and resilient. One of the few perennials that thrive in dry shade, this Epimedium is both tough and elegant, bringing color and texture to woodland gardens and shaded borders.
