Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Spring ephemeral, clumps of glaucous ferny foliage topped by deep pink flowers flushed with white. Will spread and naturalize where happy in well drained soils, sun to part shade, appreciates summer dry when dormant. Nice early season color when planted with deciduous ferns and hostas that emerge later… also nice with Hellebores.

An exquisite spring ephemeral for the shade garden, Corydalis solida emerges in early spring with delicate, green to bluish-green foliage followed by masses of tubular flowers that look like little dragons. 'Beth Evans' offers mid to glowing pink flowers. Will go dormant by summer. Plant around late emerging perennials such as hosta.

Choice bulb that gets better with each year as it multiplies. Not too heavy soil and good drainage especially in winter. Real easy. Good in the shade garden or part sun.
