In looking up Epimedium x perralchicum 'Frohnleiten', which was in the Robson garden, I discovered another error of placement. I'll show the correct version (oh it was so light and airy, and I think I lost it) and the error.

Thanks for your attention to this one also, @zuzu

Regarding TreeHuggers photo of Epimedium x perralchicum 'Frohnleiten', it's impossible to tell if it is correct without seeing details of the foliage. The name Epimedium x perralchicum represents hybrids between perralderianum x pinnatum ssp. colchicum, these two species very similar, particularly in floral details. The selection 'Frohnleiten' is known for wavy-edged leaves and an intense bronze color overlay on green, with a strong pattern of green veins. Thus the photo cannot lead to a definite ID, but at least the flowers match that of pinnatum ssp. colchicum, perralderianum, or the hybrid of the two, x perralchicum.

AliKat's photo is Epimedium x versicolor 'Sulphureum'. The obvious cue, is big central "cups" disqualify it from being pinnatum ssp. colchicum, perralderianum, and x perralchicum.
