Description

This clone grows particularly quickly, making a substantial, floriferous clump in just a few years. New spring leaves emerge dark purple and remain so as the 1.5" white, tri-petaled flowers open. Each petal has a rosy reverse. Foliage matures to green as the flowers blush to pink. Flowers simutaneously with Epimediums.
