EPIMEDIUM .- Barrenwort 
As ground-covers, for edging or the rockery, 
Epimediums are delightful. In May and June the 
plants, growing about 9 inches high and wide, 
are a mass of delicate, lovely flowers. Their 
light green, heart-shaped foliage is leathery in 
texture and most attractive. They grow well in 
shade, better in partial shade, and will also 
tolerate full sunlight. Ordinary fertile garden 
soil is satisfactory.
