| Notes: | Canary Feathers' is a hybrid corydalis that features compound, feathery, blue-green leaves and flower spikes of tube-shaped canary yellow flowers (each to 3/4" long). It is a patented plant resulting from a planned cross between Corydalis moorcroftiana (seed parent) and Corydalis wilsonii (pollen parent). Flowers bloom from May to July. If foliage is cut back after bloom, a sparse rebloom later in the summer or early fall may occur. In cool summer climates, plants may bloom throughout the summer and into fall. 'Canary Feathers' typically grows in a mound to 7" tall and 10" wide, with flower spikes rising above the foliage to 9" tall. |
| Care: | Grow in moist, humusy, well-drained soils in part shade to full shade. Plants prefer cool summer climates. If foliage significantly depreciates in hot summers, plants may be cut back. Plants are not reliably winter hardy throughout USDA Zone 5 where they should be planted in protected locations. 'Canary Feathers' is sterile and will not self-seed in the garden. |
