Hellebore with Epimedium

We have another week with roller coaster temperatures forecast, so I took a photo before things get cold hurt Here's an epimedium that has emerged by a hellebore. I'll consider dividing this plant in the future to extend the effect in the hellebore bed. I purchased this plant in Timonium, MD at a garden club sale while visiting my aunt and uncle a couple of years ago. The first Spring the epimedium did not emerge.

It's looking happy in 2017 though. That's the kind of surprise I love!
