<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">Purple or white flower color looks like a pretty clear identifier — according to Flora of Virginia, we only have one native Corydalis: the much
smaller yellow-flowered C. flavula. C. sempervirens has pink flowers ( & has been renamed Capnoides sempervirens). Then there is Fumaria officinalis with round seedpods — and it isn’t native.<br>

Just to be sure.. How do you know that this is incisa? There are a lot of native Corydalis as I'm sure you know... Some look like this. I just want to be sure the identification is correct.<br>
<br>
Thank you!<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Last year around the end of April I went looking for possible Corydalis incisa along Red Bud Creek, near my home in Albemarle Co.
VA. I found probably 40 plants in bloom and starting to go to seed. I pulled up all those I saw and flagged the area. This year I went back on April 3 and found about 15 plants in bloom nearby, but not yet going to seed, and pulled them all and again flagged
the area.<br>
<br>
In the last several days I have heard of two more infestations in Virginia, one more in Albemarle Co. and one in Madison Co., both in extensive private native plant gardens. I don’t know if the plant hitchhiked in with another plant purchased from a supplier
or whether the owner planted them without realizing that they could be very invasive; I will investigate that.<br>
