Thanks, Noreen, I just started getting involved with Epimediums last year.  I now have:
Epimedium pinnatum ssp. colchicum
Epimedium alpinum Rubrum'
Epimedium x versicolor Versicolor'
Epimedium diphyllum Roseum'
Epimedium x youngianum John Gallagher'

.....or at least I hope I do. We'll see what's still there in spring. I
didn't pick any of the "Top Performers", but maybe I'll put them on a
future list.
