Picture of plant
Epimedium grandiflorum 'Lilafee'
Longspur Fairy Wings

Dainty in looks only. Epimediums are tough as nails in the landscape. Once established they require very little care and are drought tolerant. Delicate looking flowers on wiry stems in early spring look like little fairies flying above the ground. Heart shaped foliage follows the flowers and many times has nice shades of red in the young leaves. Mature leaves are a good solid green and not bothered by insects. Lilafee has lilac flowers with very long spurs and is a more compact grower. Plants are more clumping than "groundcovering". Height 6-8"
Deer resistant

Z5-8
