Description

Epimedium wushanense 'Sandy Claws', commonly known as 'Sandy Claws' Barrenwort, is a distinctive perennial celebrated for its unique foliage and delicate flowers. Emerging in spring, the evergreen leaves display a striking maroon hue with pronounced spiny edges, transitioning to a glossy green as the season progresses. In mid to late spring, it produces airy panicles of creamy white flowers that gracefully rise above the foliage, adding an ethereal charm to shaded garden areas. This cultivar is particularly valued for its adaptability to dry shade conditions and its resistance to deer and rabbits, making it an excellent groundcover choice for woodland gardens.
