Epimedium flavum OG 92 036



Archive entry 27.03.11

8th April 2006

Large pale yellow flowers, similar to E.davidii in many ways, but without the red sepals. I grow it in quite a dark location, where the pale flowers are quite striking, but a little insipid. I imagine that the pale colour would be tiresome in a brighter location.

A form collected by Mikinori Ogisu in Sichuan under the number OG 92036. The paler of the two forms I grow, it has slightly darker tips to the petal spurs.

... snow accumulating on the pots in the background. Every season is different!
This is my second clone, which is slightly darker in flower than the Mikinori Ogisu collection.
