I didn't find a common name, but in the book Wildflowers of Minnesota it says
that corydalis is Greek for "crested lark" referring to the shape of the
flowers. It also says that C. sempervirens is one of THREE corydalis in MN,
but it doesn't give the names of the other two. Does anybody know what they
are?
