Epimedium alpinum - Mount Swallow
Epimedium alpinum is one the toughest, easiest, but most charming of all the clan.
Decorated with sprays of rusty red and gold flowers, like flocks of swallows flying through spring.
With up to 20 dainty, winged flowers per stem
Foliage is equally attractive, flushing with pink and rust colours in spring.
Then maturing to a solid green carpet in summer, before blazing with bronze & red again in autumn.
Perfect for planting as a hardy groundcover in part to deep shade.
Copes brilliantly with drier areas under trees and shrubs.
And will quickly fill a decorative container to light up a shaded area.
Easy low maintenance once established.
Low water need, extremely frost hardy, and forms a low, dense, groundcover carpet.
Epimedium alpinum is one of the lowest, tightest, toughest growing of all the Epimediums.
Effective at keeping weeds at bay under trees and shrubs.
Enjoys the compost from fallen leaves and acid pH conditions.
Chop the foliage back in winter to best display those delightful dove-like flowers.
And encourage flushes of beautifully coloured new leaves.
