Epimediums
 

Epimediums are easy-to-grow, woodland perennials that provide the first welcome of spring with their spidery flowers, then a solid backdrop of attractive foliage for the remainder of the growing season. These drought tolerant perennials can either be used as a woodland specimen, or great groundcovers for small or large areas.
