From what I have been able to gather, damp and cool are the operative
words when it comes to the flexuosa group of Corydalis. Expect,
Merri, that you are in the mountains and maybe at a relatively high
elevation? That would make a difference, too, in addition to the
north side of your barn. This group is just a wash out in my hot,
humid, lowland climate...a major FORGET IT! Sigh! They take one
look at my garden and curl up their toes and depart forever.
