Sulphureum Barrenwort 1 Live Plant – 1 Gallon Pot – Epimedium × versicolor 'Sulphureum'

Sulphureum Barrenwort (Epimedium × versicolor 'Sulphureum') is a shade-loving herbaceous to semi-evergreen perennial admired for its delicate pale yellow spring flowers and attractive, heart-shaped foliage. Its airy clusters of small, spurred blossoms rise above the leaves, creating a graceful floral display in woodland gardens, shaded borders, and naturalistic landscapes.

The foliage emerges with attractive bronze or reddish tones in spring before transitioning to green as the growing season progresses. In cooler weather, the leaves may develop additional bronze and reddish coloration. Sulphureum Barrenwort forms spreading clumps through underground rhizomes, gradually creating a low-growing groundcover that adds texture and seasonal interest beneath trees and shrubs.

This adaptable ornamental perennial is especially valued for its tolerance of dry shade once established. It generally performs best in partial to full shade and prefers well-drained soil enriched with organic matter.
