Re: Epimediums

Yes, the two natives that I know of where on the land when we bought it.  I
later added nobilis.  Hepatica americana is only in the blue color but many
of them.  The Hepatica acutiloba is a white one that grows on the steep
rocky areas in my hillside.  I have been known to use my binoaculars to see
the flowers.  I also like to watch the chipmunks go in and out of their
holes.
