More vigorous than E. x rubrum. The leaves combine delicate shades of bronze in early spring, ideal for picking. The delicate sulphur yellow flowers are borne on wiry stems, half buried among the leaves for protection. In autumn the green summer foliage again becomes marbled with bronze, remaining all winter.

Is Epimedeum xversicolour Sulphureum a controlable spreader? I have had epimedeums which were really invasive.
It is known to spread quickly but does not have the ability to spread uncontrollably like other plants.
