COMMON:
Corydalis
May
- Bright yellow
COMMENTS:
Extremely more hardy than the delicate foliage
implies and related to Dicentra. Loose
sprays of tubular, 1- to 2-inch flowers appear in
May and bloom intermittently until frost. It will
grow to full potential in light shade, although
with fewer blooms. Use a moist, humusy soil. Is a
prolific self-seeder. Transplant new starters as
soon as they are identified in the spring if they
need to be moved. Early spring growth for the first
few weeks appears weak,
but it suddenly flourishes and continues to spread
throughout the summer. Use either as specimens
throughout the beds, or as an edging
around beds of tall, bold plantings.
