Hi all,
I'm back again -- decided this summer to convert my grove of trees into a
shade garden. Where better to go for advice than this group?
At the moment I'm thinking about Corydalis. I have Corydalis lutea
(=Pseudofumaria lutea) from Gene Bush's Munchkin Nursery, and some
Corydalis solida. Has anyone had eny experience growing any of the
blue-flowered Corydalis in a woodlands garden? I have seen Corydalis
flexuosa 'Blue Panda' and C. flexuosa 'China Blue' for sale, and would like
to try them out. but there is no sense in wantonly killing plants if they
won't make it here in USDA zone 5 with our American Horticultural Society
Heat Zone 5 or warmer summers.
