Sierra fumewort
Corydalis caseana
Sierra fumewort is a delicate native perennial found in moist mountain habitats of the western United States, producing clusters of pale pink to white tubular flowers in spring and early summer. It thrives in partial shade with reliably moist, humus-rich soil and is an excellent choice for shaded native plant or woodland gardens. Keep soil evenly moist and protect from hot afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch.
