And I'm delighted with this which I guess is a white form of Corydalis solida or ice-green actually. It too had a quite different label on the pot. ::)

It's not C. malkensis, then? C. solida usually has divided bracts. Lovely Narcissus!

Lesley,

why do you think it couldn't be C. cancellatus subsp. mazziaricus? It looks like it is....but I'm just a beginning croconut, so I'm far from sure.

Maybe it's better to post your question here too: http://www.srgc.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=4369.0


It's what I have as C. cancellatus mazziaricus. Can't remember the source but it was one of the English nurseries. It is late summer through autumn flowering and is creamy-white with black stripes on the outside and has rather pointed petals. Sorry you can't see the outsides here.

Mmmm I think it is. It now has 3 stems of flowers on such a little plant.
