Description

This epimedium selection was brought into the US from Japan by Terra Nova founder, Dan Heims. The plant was subsequently named and introduced in 2001 by Diana Reeck of Collector's Nursery. The vigorous clumps are topped, starting in early April, with spider-like flowers, composed of bright pink cups and complimentary bright pink spurs, a very nice deer-resistant selection.
