Barry - me too. Was trying to quizzle-out what the last one was, when I put my little mouse paws over the photo and discovered I needn't be so clever, you'd done it for me. Finally opened my Terra Nova catalogue - had to close it, colour-blindness. It's not nice to do that to a Canadian who's only seen 4 colours since December. Barbarapc
Teza's Hortus Magnificum is greatly indebted to this plant, Corydalis flexuosa 'Blue Panda,' which is the single plant from which my horticultural obsession with the colour blue originated from. No mauvish-purple for me, I want the real deal: the iridescent icy blue flowers that I was once overheard to describe as follows:
'... a shoal of shimmering, shivering, iridescent icy blue sea horses, atop a tumultuous sea of grey-blue fern inspired waves!'
Of course, it was shortly after said comment that my malady was finally diagnosed!
