Re: Epimediums

That's surprising to me, Lillian.  I realize zone 5 in Indiana is not the
same as Zone 5 everywhere else, but I'd think you'd be green by now,
especially since I'm more of a Zone 5a.  We will see-saw through April, may
even get a bit of snow again, but things are budding out.  Do you plant
crocus, reticulata Iris, snowdrops, Hellebores,  winter aconites, glory of
the snow?  These cuties will bloom early even if it is brown all around.
Great mood elevators.
