Epimedium koreanum is closely related to Epimedium Grandiflora. So it should really be called Epimedium grandiflorum ssp. koreanum.
One popular cultivar is Epimedium grandiflorum ssp. koreanum 'La Rocaille'.
Epimedium koreanum is widely used in traditional Chinese and Korean herbal medicine, however it also makes a great garden plant as do so many epimediums.
Growing notes and Epimedium koreanum care:
Try a humus rich soil that has some well rotted manure dug well in. Epimedium koreanum will do well in poorer soils, but will do a lot better in a good soil. Dappled shade, or morning sun and afternoon shade is best.
