Corydalis flexuosa forms a spreading mat of fern-like foliage, often with a bronze tint, from which clusters of dainty tubular, sky-blue flowers appear in late spring. It's perfect for using to fill gaps in a partially shaded border or planting under trees and shrubs.

Grow Corydalis flexuosa in moist but well-drained soil in light shade. Lift and divide congested clumps in autumn. Explore other Corydalis varieties such as 'China Blue' and 'Porcelain Blue'.
