Bishop's Hat

Epimedium grandiflorum

Berberidaceae · Groundcover

Bishop's Hat, or barrenwort, is a graceful shade-loving groundcover with delicate, heart-shaped foliage that often takes on bronze tints in cooler weather, complemented by unique, spurred flowers. It's an excellent choice for dry shade, woodlands, or underplanting shrubs, adding fine texture and early spring beauty.

• · Prefers partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soil.
• · Tolerates dry shade once established, but benefits from occasional watering.
• · Cut back old foliage in late winter before new growth emerges for best display.
