McDonough, your Corydalis have great colours and look very vital. I agree that its hard to get a clean labeled collection of Corydalis.
Please tell me how large your garden is. It seems to me that you have tons of plants in it. I feel a little jealous  Wink

Yes, the Corydalis seem to like it here, and they seed around all over the place.  I love the red ones, but when you have them of certain colors, they seed around and expand those colors through the garden.  My red ones started with 'George Baker', but I can no longer be certain of having that named cultivar, what I have are 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation seedlings.  In other words, the cultivar names no longer matter.

Garden space versus land, are two different things.  I have 1.75 acres (the town I live in has 2-acre minimum property lots, smaller lots are "grand fathered", which means smaller lots are allowed by exception).  About 1 acre is useable, the rest of my property is a steep wooded area well beyond the reach of a water hose, so I don't bother.

Rick, I'll look for the continuation of Dicentra talk on the Miscellaneous Woodlanders thread  Smiley

My cheilanthifolia reseeds way too much as to be really a weed.  Also the horrid heterocarpa does the same.
