Masses of white flowers flushed with pink. New red foliage in Spring. Height 25cm.
Epimedium ‘Akebono’, commonly known as barrenwort or fairy wings, is a perennial plant prized for its attractive foliage and delicate creamy white flowers that flush with pink and bloom in spring. It features heart-shaped, often variegated leaves and grows low to the ground, making it ideal for ground cover in shaded locations.
The plant prefers partial to full shade, although it can handle some sun. It thrives in well-drained, rich soil with moderate watering.
Care tips include using mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds, along with pruning and deadheading to encourage growth. A balanced, slow-release fertilizer applied in spring is also recommended.
