Well Named


I have several flower varieties named "Purple" this or "Purple" that. One of my favorites is Corydalis solida 'Purple Beauty', shown blooming by a meandering back pathway, where it gets morning sun and afternoon shade. It is tucked into a little spot with several varieties of fritillaries, a couple of trilliums, and a half dozen primroses, just to keep it company.

Thanks! I see that I live only a few hours away from Arrowhead when I return to MI!!! I will be going there this year for sure. I live close to plant delights in NC too. How great.
