There seems to be several different plants  sold as 'Vuurvogel'/'Firebird'. :(
I have two which were both bought from Nijssen in Netherlands as 'Vuurvogel', and neither is like Hannelore's plant. The other is a tiny plant with muddy reddish flowers, real dissappointment, the other might be the real 'Firebird', it is a taller plant with true red flowers. I guess there are seedlings sold with the name of mother plant..

Yes Leena it's a nice plant. I do have worries that it isn't 'right' since in Tebbit, Liden and Zetterlund it says  "........... starts flowering in early summer and may continue with the occasional flowering raceme well into September.........." Mine usually starts flowering early to mid-March and is still in flower in late October. Having said that forumists with far more knowledge than I possess assure me it is 'right'.

I think I agree that Hannelore's 'Firebird' isn't 'right' and Stone's Corydalis solida 'G P Barker'  is probably the plant I have known for many years as C. s. 'George Baker'.

I don't mind, I like it anyway. Perhaps I should stop placing labels in order not to disturb the fun about my garden.  :-\

Nice blue David.

The suppliers should know better than propagate Corydalis from seeds and use the name of mother plant.
But they are all so beautiful that for me it really doesn't matter. Grow them from seeds and you will end up with many nice surprises! (and you can name them as you wish :D

I agree that all Corydalis are very nice, and it doesn't matter what their name is!  :) Only when you try to buy a certain type it is a  shame when you don't get what you were hoping to get.

The suppliers should know better than propagate Corydalis from seeds and use the name of mother plant.
But they are all so beautiful that for me it really doesn't matter. Grow them from seeds and you will end up with many nice surprises!

I think it is very difficult to prevent Corydalis seedlings if they are grown commercially in fields in big rows, and that is why there are different colored plants sold with the same name. But of course this is only my speculation..

'George Baker' seems to be another one  where different colored plants are sold with the same name. I have bought it from three places and two of them have the same red plant but the plant from the third was smaller and more pinkier red, but not as pink as in stones picture.
This is a plant which I have thought was the real  GB, but I don't know (picture from last spring). It is a nice red anyway whatever it is. The large and more pink Corydalis in the background is 'Beth Evans' (or bought as such).
