Title: Corydalis arrival
Post by: MarkLyman on March 31, 2017, 11:36:39 AM

Hi, am hoping someone might know something about this corydalis please? 
It has definitely arrived as a self seeded plant.
We grow lutea and solida 'Beth Evans' - but that's it

Thx, Mark

Think I agree with Carolyn. Looks like ochroleuca

C. lutea grows in limestone walls all down our road but I have waited in vain for 13 years for it to arrive in our garden walls. One day I will remember to grab a pinch of seed and give it some help. It will have to fight it out with Campanula portenschlagiana and Meconopsis cambrica.

Thank you Carolyn and Darren.  Ochroleuca it is - shall see how it develops.
And I'm very pleased to have it too.

Darren, pm me if you would like some seedlings of lutea.

Best, Mark
