Or would that be spelled addendumb? TPP knew he'd missed the witch hazel, but an alert reader who was not worried about hurting feelings, but wanted to see the gold corydalis, let me know the ball had been dropped. Well, while checking the estate to see how well the leaf guys had done (very well), TPP noticed that these were still in flower and likely to continue for awhile. So here are the missing blooms, the Corydalis lutea (probably better named Pseudofumaria lutea), but this hardly helps because the old Fumiariaceae (bleeding heart family) is a defunct family now submerged into the Papaveraceae, the poppy family, and it's a false fumaria anyways. And the 4-parted witch hazel with those long narrow petals. This same shrub can also bloom in the spring, but then the flowers are reddish in color. Pretty cheerful, huh? Happy? Hope so. Because this is it for the season.
