Corydalis 2020

[David Nicholson]

A couple of Corydalis here that are missing labels. I suspect the blue one might be difficult to name but the purple one might be easier?

David,

I think the one with the yellow foliage is "Berry Exciting", which I keep losing over the winter. I have now given up trying it.

[David Nicholson]

Thanks Carolyn, I don't remember buying that one though!

Corydalis marschalliana from Leonid Bondarenko is a bit different than C.marschalliana 'Crimea', and it flowers a little later, but they are not growing side by side so it is difficult to say why the different flowering time.
C.solida 'Firebird' is a good one, too.

I'm now fairly certain that this is Corydalis 'Wildside Blue'?

Corydalis nobilis is flowering now. It is a big plant, but goes underground soon after flowering so it doesn't take room later in the summer.

Blue flowering bulbous Corydalis haven't been easy to grow for me, I have lost many, but now there are some flowering.
C.turtschaninovii 'Eric the Red' lives but hasn't multiplied at all in over five years.
This C.turtschaninovii in the second picture is doing better, it's place has more moist and humus.
The third picture is of a plant I bought as C.fumariifolia ssp fumariifolia, but it is flowering at the same time as C.turtschaninovii, so I'm not sure what it is. It has more divided leaves though.
