Cheryl,
You better move that lemon balm further away than another house! I
innocently bought one plant about 20 years ago and I'm still trying to get
rid of offspring this week! I must admit it does smell divine though. I
used to think I would put it in a pot - Ha! It would still seed into the
garden from the deck. :) Enjoy your Epimedium, it is one of my favorite
perennials.

Hello,
This is my first spring with an Epimedium - un-named because I bought
it at the end of season at a local nursery. I recognized the foliage
from an article from on of the gardening magazines I read. It over
wintered and has popped up. Yesterday, I noticed that there are
several tiny clusters that look like flowers. So cool, I expected I
would have to wait a few years.
However, I did end up with one disappointment from an other shopping
trip last fall - some place I had seen a 'yellow' leaved mint and
thought I'd found it at an other nursery (no tags at that point) -
well its up, and I'll bet that it is just plain old lemon balm, which
means its moving to another house!
