Fumewort 'Berry Exciting', Fumitory 'Berry Exciting', Corydalis 'Berry Exciting'
Incredibly showy, Corydalis shimienensis ‘Berry Exciting’ (Fumewort) is a striking perennial forming an attractive mound of lacy, highly divided, brilliant yellow leaves adorned with green streaks. From early summer to fall, clusters of fragrant, dusky purple flowers are produced above the foliage, creating a terrific contrast. Easy to grow, this Fumewort does not go summer dormant and tolerates heat and humidity. Its vigorous cascading habit makes it an excellent groundcover and looks great spilling out of baskets and over banks. Evergreen in mild winter regions.
