Corydalis solida 'White Swallow'

(Attachment Link)

Nice pristine white one Gail. I have to wait long to see my corydalis blooming!!

[Leena]

You're welcome Tristan:). 'Boyar' is nice dark colour, at least when it grows here it is even darker than in your picture. It is a hybrid of C.kusnetzovii x C.solida and sterile, so it only increases with bulbs. I hope it will do well for you.

[Tristan_He]

Yes, the camera didn't quite capture the colour correctly - the colour is actually a bit darker.

It's a lovely thing, I hope it does well here.

Corydalis solida ‘Purple Bird’


Corydalis solida 'Schorl' - good deep colour

[Carolyn]

Wow, Schorl is a brilliant colour. Is it really much darker than Purple Bird (which i have in flower just now)? Where did you get it? Rareplants seems to be the only stockist - and it is out of stock.

[Gail]

Yes, definitely darker than Purple Bird (the photo of Purple Bird is probably a bit pinker than my eye says, but the Schorl one is fairly close to true). Mine did come from Rareplants.

[Carolyn]

Thanks, Gail.

Corydalis schanginii and its ssp ainiae

[Tristan_He]

Those are lovely Herbert, especially ainae.

[Leena]

Gail 'Schorl' is really nice and dark, and stand out. I haven't heard of it before, is it pure C.solida?

[Gail]

Yes, introduced in Summer 2014. As described by Paul Christian, "An excellent, compact dark-flowered form bred by Dr A. Seisums."

Corydalis ledebouriana



Another go at photographing 'Boyar', I think this is a bit more representative though still not sure the camera has captured it.

Thank you Gail:).

I think that is close to what it is, or even a bit darker in reality, but maybe the colour also depends on how much sun there is.. I don't know.
C.ledebouriana is pretty. I haven't tried it here thinking that it may be too cold..

Some great Corydalis here - 'Schorl' has a fantastic colour to it. Here's a few that are doing well for me at the moment.

Corydalis schanginii ainiae - I've had it for a couple of years, done much better this year than previously:


Corydalis solida 'Turaco':


Corydalis integra - this is from a bit earlier in the year (start of March):
