Corydalis flexuosa 'Golden Panda' (Fumewort)
Fumewort 'Golden Panda', Fumitory 'Golden Panda', Corydalis 'Golden Panda'
Noted for its turquoise flowers and golden foliage, Corydalis flexuosa 'Golden Panda' (Fumewort) is a showy, erect perennial forming an attractive mound of lacy, highly divided leaves, emerging green in spring, and becoming chartreuse yellow as the season progresses. In mid-spring, eye-catching turquoise-blue, dangling flowers are produced in dense sprays above the foliage, creating a remarkable contrast. Easy to grow, this Fumewort goes summer dormant in hot areas but can bloom right through to late fall in cool summer areas. Perfect for the shade garden.
- Grows in clumps, 8-12 in. tall (20-30 cm) and 10-12 in. wide (25-30 cm).
- Best in part shade, in moderately fertile, evenly moist, well-drained soils. Dislikes summer drought.
- Virtually disease free. Watch for snails and slugs.
- A great perennial plant for beds and borders, cottage gardens, rock gardens or woodlands
- Propagate by division in autumn
