Have Beyond North - Pond Path (left) Acquisition Year 2022 Acquisition Year 2014 |

Longspur Epimedium (Epimedium grandiflorum 'Yubae') |
Have Close East - Front Island Bed Plants that didn't survive Acquisition Year 2015 Acquisition Year 2014 |
Didn't Survive; FIB (Synonyms: 'Crimson', Crimson Beauty', 'Rose Queen') Often mislabeled, this plant arrived in the west many decades ago from Japan with the name 'Yubae'. However, with only Japanese characters to go by and no translation it was probably soon given an English cultivar name. It suffered a third renaming in the U.K. when another plant, 'Tama No Genpei', was going around as 'Rose Queen' so it was renamed 'Crimson Beauty', thus perpetuating the confusion. Yubae's beautiful, large rosy-red flowers have white spur tips. The purple-bronze spring foliage, is only 8" tall at first bloom. A second flush of flowers/foliage grows to 18". Early bloomer. |
