Epimediums don't come much better than Orange Queen, and it’s certainly consistently popular with our customers. Looks very effective in a large pot. You can trim back the older overwintered leaves in spring to allow the flowers to display themselves better and to encourage new foliage in the spring.
Orange Queen is another garden hybrid, as Epimedium x Warleyense is the result of a cross between the species Epimedium Alpinum and E. Pinnatum ssp. Colchicum. Worth all the trouble, though. The Warleyense bit refers to Warley Place, now a nature reserve, but once the site of a house, long since demolished, and extensive gardens belonging to the legendary horticulturalist Ellen Willmott, she of Eryngium Miss Willmott’s Ghost (and many other plants!). You can read an interesting and informative blog post about Warley Place and Ellen Willmott here.
Epimedium Orange Queen is a hardy evergreen perennial with reddish bronze tinged heart shaped leaves and orange flowers in spring suitable for shade.
