Add a burst of color to your garden with Corydalis lutea, also known as Golden Bleeding Heart or Yellow Corydalis. This enchanting, low-maintenance perennial, part of the Fumariaceae family, thrives in shaded rock gardens, woodland settings, or as an edging plant along garden paths. Forming neat mounds of finely-cut, fern-like foliage, its bright yellow, spurred flowers bloom profusely from late spring until autumn, creating a vibrant display.

Native to the southern Alps, Yellow Corydalis is best suited to cooler climates (Zones 4-8) and flourishes in part to full shade. It prefers well-drained, medium moisture soil, tolerating a variety of soil types from sandy loam to clay. While it excels in cooler, moist environments without going dormant, it may struggle in hot, humid conditions. Despite its delicate appearance, this plant self-seeds easily, ensuring continued growth year after year.

Complimentary to shade-loving perennials like Dicentra and Pulmonaria, Corydalis lutea can transform your garden into a lush, naturalized haven. Its rarity of pests and disease concerns, combined with its long blooming season, make it a charming and practical choice for garden enthusiasts.
