Description
Corydalis 'Blue Heron' is a simply stunning and unique looking perennial that will light up your garden during the spring and summer months. It produces incredible, electric blue tubular flowers with contrasting white throats. Each bloom will fill your garden with a heavenly scent and the blue-green foliage creates the perfect backdrop. 'Blue Heron' will do well in both full sun or a shaded position in the garden and is perfect for planting in the front of beds and borders as it will keep naturally neat and compact. Because Corydalis 'Blue Heron' is a woodland plant, it will also look incredible when planted through groups of trees. Delivered as a jumbo plug plant, ready to pot up, grow on and plant out.
Top Tips
Corydalis may go dormant in very dry summers, so keep it well watered.
Care Information
  • Best grown in humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil in a semi-shaded position, avoiding exposed locations. Will grow well in a sunny border if kept regularly watered to stop it becoming dormant in the summer.
  • As the plant dies back the leaves will yellow and the stems wither - at this point you can cut them down to ground level, and you may get a second flush.
  • When new growth emerges in spring, add a slow-release fertiliser to the soil to encourage longer blooming, and continue to feed and water throughout the growing season.
  • Look out for slugs and snails eating young leaves.
  • Propagate by division in autumn.
Delivery Information

Our experienced team at the nursery will always carefully package and send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive once you receive and plant them.
