Wonderful plants. Thanks for showing. Makes me really long for spring. But the sun is just back here these days and it will be at least 3 months till I can have something similar in my garden.

In our area it isn`t possible to keep such plants a long time in garden, exception C. popovii. Probably it is easier with protection for strong moisture. Magnar, I`m surprised about the picts of different Corydalis spp. in the garden in Sweden.

Gerard, nice plants! Popovii has been on my want to try-list (in my garden) for some time.
By the way, Magnar gardens in Norway ;D

The pictures are not from this year but last spring. I have to wait2months till my first Corydalis emerge.
This plant popped up in a pot with something else. It is spring-flowering and looks a little like Corydalis nobilis, but not quite. It is completely hardy and reaches 30-40cm.
Any suggestions what it can be?
Answers suggest possibly Corydalis nigro-apiculata.

Mayby the long winter, the short and cool summer in Sweden + Norway  8) are the reasons for the possibility of the garden culture of section Leonticioides...

Your pict shows C. nigro-appiculata, a chinese member. In my opinion it is beautifullest, when it appears in spring:

The stems with their neat square cross section are pretty "cool" but that new foliage is really attractive. Smart looking plant all round and growing outside for you.... very nice.

C nigro-apiculata? - never heard of that before. Thanks Gerhard.
I have purchased some seeds from Chris Chadwell, maybe it is from him. I remember this plant suddenly appeared as a single seedling in a discarded pot.
Maggi, I prefere to grow all plants outdoors in the garden. I plant all kinds everywhere and never remember where they are ???

C. nigro-apiculata is 100% hardy in the open garden here in North Norway. I have had it for several years. It  had no problems even in the very hard winter we had here last year.

I `ve never got seeds of C. nigro-appiculata, plant is self-steril. But division is easy, best in spring, when growth starts !

Corydalis section Leonticioides grow mad in pots, it`s horrible to get good picts

Gerhard, you have an impressive collection of Corydalis!
I try to establish as many as I can in my garden as it seems that molluscs don't like them.
