Corydalis GP Baker - does better in the garden than in a pot I find, being more compact & brighter flowers.

The colours in the hybrid remind me of those of Corydalis sempervirens - but the size and shape are very different!

Pete,
Nice hybrid, always interesting to me how ( to my eyes ) corydalis hybrids are often visibally a blend of both parents, not necessarily true it seems to me of hybrids from other genera.
Hristo passed away, after a long illness, on 11th November 2018. His support of SRGC was  much appreciated.

All my Corydalis are still below ground and will remain so until April. Thus I post old pictures. This thread does not say that pictures must be taken today.
These are all solidas.
The first one shows what comes up as selfsown seedlings in my garden. I try to collect them and move them out of harm's way but sometimes before I see what they look like.
The next is an unnamed white of Penza origin.
Third is 'Blushing Girl'
The fourth is not Georg Baker. It is a selfsown seedling.
The last one I got as George Baker 12 years ago. It is slightly lighter at the mouth it is also later than most of the other solidas and the leaflets are slightly more narrow.
Of course I am not sure. Nobody seems to know what the REAL GB is.

I am very fond of the woodland Corydalis. I like theothers too but I cannot grow them well at the moment. These pictures are of bracteata and ornata. It so happened that I was growing them together.
Solidas come in all variations of red-pink-white and purple but real blues or yellows are absent so these are a welcome contrast even if they are somewhat later..
The bracteatas are of two different clones. They are self-sterile so two are needed. Bracteata has nice flaring "mouths" making them very showy.
Hope you like them.

That is an attractive one Tony,
Do you have enough and would you like to swap?

I also have one that is tracable to Greece, bougt from Janis. Solida incisa 'vermion snow'. Pic #1
He also has one for sale called turtschaninowii 'Amur' pic #2 which is a really good doer in my garden. It is 25-50% larger than other turtchaninowiis. 
In my eyes the flowers Pic #3 are rather similar to other types pic#4
I am normally not too happy with the mauve types but this caucasica pic #5 is quite good.

Gote

yes I will be pleased to swap.

Your latest pictures are lovely but I have to smile at some of the romantic names given them. All the corydalis I have found on Vermion are white,very robust and grow in open alpine turf.I will post my pictures of them in a few days when they are open.
