Corydalis solida grows to 10" tall and features clusters (up to 20 flowers per cluster) of tube-shaped, purplish red flowers (1" long) which bloom in spring. Mounds of divided, medium green, fern-like foliage resemble that of bleeding heart (Dicentra) which is in the same family.
The corydalis plant generally doesn’t need to be fertilized, but it’s ok to use a gentler fertilizer on it at the start of the growing season. This can give it a boost as it goes through its growth cycle. The pH of the soil should be between 5 and 7.
