Epimedium diphyllum ‘Variegatum’

E. diphyllum  ‘Variegatum’   (Cc. 950164)  


(Synonyms: 'Shiro tiri fu', 'Shiro chiri fu')

Friends Roy Herold and the late Gerry Anderson bought this plant back from Japan for Darrell in 1995. The leaflets are variously stippled—some leaves are green with flecks of white, others white flecked green. The white variegation is enhanced with 2-3 hours of direct daily sun in our nursery. Dainty white flowers hover above leaves reminiscent of small spattered painter’s palettes. Foliage gradually turns greener through the season, but the variegation is still evident in the fall as the foliage turns to rusty red. 12" tall.
