A colorful and evergreen shade groundcover, Epimedium × warleyense ‘Orange Queen’ (also known as pubigerum or Orangekönigin) produces striking copper‑orange spurred blooms in mid‑spring on wiry, 15–20 in (38–50 cm) stems above glossy, heart‑shaped leaves edged rosy‑red. Its foliage emerges rosy-bronze, matures green through summer, and turns bronzy again in fall, offering year‑round interest. This slow-spreading clump thrives in part to full shade, thrives in a range of soils (from dry to moist, loamy to clay), and is remarkably deer-, rabbit-, and drought-tolerant once established. Butterflies adore its early flowers, and its evergreen habit makes it ideal for woodland gardens, containers, and shady borders
