Corydalis ledebouriana - 2017

Very early flowering species from Central Asia for a well-drained soil in a sunny spot. It is only a few inches tall and would get lost in a border, and as it does not like too much summer wet, is best grown in a pot, bulb frame or raised bed.
Comments on this photo
Sbg - the Alpine Garden Society website says it has a "tuber large and corky with several growing points", while a vendor's website claims "more floriferous with age." I take this to mean it can have more than one stem, but it may need a more fertile soil than in my raised bed. It is also self sterile, so I won't get any seedlings from my solitary plant.

The unusual is always interesting tho'.

the several growing points will mean it produces more flower stems and the older it is the more growing points :o)
