Look in nargs.org for details. I didn’t get his catalog this year, but he sent it to me online for free. I ordered 5 cordydalis and crocus bulbs from him which came in August and averaged $25.60 per bulb with all the shipping, phytosanitary certificate and bank charges. But if they live and bloom they will be worth it. I have been growing Corydalis solida hybrids since 2002 and find they do better after moist summers, as long as the site has excellent drainage. After a dry summer I lost some, so now I water the spots where the bulbs are underground in a dry spell. Also, if you only plant the good colors, even the seedlings will be good colors, not the sad magenta of the typical Corydalis solida.
