Can you identify this plant?
It is growing in front of a disused garage door on a car park. It is in in
full bloom and is quite striking. I have never seen it before during my long lifetime. It is about 1' x 1' and is literally covered in rich yellow trumpet like flowers which are about half an inch long. There are about twelve flowers in a cluster at the end of each stem and the foliage is similar to this http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgur...d=0CI0BEPwdMAo. |

Quite a bit of it growing in walls round here, some nice plants in a wall close to the traffic lights at the turn to Tesco, was just looking at it on Saturday. |

Well done Emrys, It's lovely to have someone look for themselves and not just post a vague description and then sit back waiting for everyone else to do the work. |

It's Corydalis lutea: http://www.finegardening.com/plantgu...corydalis.aspx It can invade slightly, but so pretty it's worth a bit of trouble. -- Spider from high ground in SE London gardening on clay |

Funny enough one of those turned up in our front garden last year, it's stunning this year. I've looked around and can't find it in anyone else's garden locally. -- Regards. Bob Hobden.

It soon will be if you leave yours to seed! It grows like a weed in my front garden. I brought some from my Mother's garden about 25 years ago. She warned me it would seed around and it does. It now grows in my next door neighbour's front garden also! In my back garden I have a white one with white and green flowers which I certainly never planted! Pam in Bristol |

My wife and I really took to this lonely plant which was so outstanding on a rather dreary public car park and the odd thing is that it is the first time that I have seen it during my very long life. I have twenty of its seeds on order now from E-Bay (£1.20) so I look forward to its development. |

It was a common weed one place I lived. The idea of buying it...

There are some lovely blue forms and also a creamy white one, just in case you feel like making a collection! -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

I grew it for a few years. It's not as invasive as C. lutea, and its flowers are such an unusual colour combination they are quite attractive. -- Jeff |
