Re: Corydalis
Jim,
Bill is right on the money with this one. C. ochreleuca is a gem. Begins
blooming in early April and is still in bloom out there in dry shade. It will stay
in bloom until there is a hard freeze. And I do mean dry shade this year. Still no
rain here. Blooms are bountiful in creamy white white a yellow lip. Foliage is
green-blue and feathery. One super plant for difficult places in the garden and
responds well to the normal 'moist but well drained' garden soil as well.
I finally have build up my supply until I now have enough to place them in the
nursery. not in the catalog or web site as yet, but will be.
Missing a goo bet with this Corydalis if you do not try it.
