Re: Corydalils lutea or flava

Aha - Bill, there is where it is, in the Peterson Wildflower Guide - North 
and East.

There is a Corydalis flavula, C. aurea and C. micrantha.

I don't know the difference between flava and flavula.  That is the limit of 
Latin for me.

They have slight differences in the flower but are all pretty much alike.  In 
the order above called, yellow, golden and no name color.

There is a Corydalis sempervirens growing wild around here.  It is pink and 
yellow in the same flowers and seeds around a great deal also.

Bill, if you go out and get some C. lutea you will still have seedlings so I 
guess you would have to choose which seedlings you want by the gross.  

I did not think to look in a wildflower guide and I have never seen the 
yellow wildflower.
