Epimedium fargesii
Beautiful pink and purple reflexed flowers that stand out strikingly from the fresh green leaves.
Said to be variable in the wild, but this is the only variation I know. I have seen photos of plants with broader white sepals, but every time I try to chase them down,
I end up with this narrow pinkish form. Grrrr..

This is a seedling from E.fargesii that seems to be surprisingly close to the original.
