The #fumewort #Corydalis #solida (#Papaveraceae) grows to a height of 10 to 20 cm and blooms in #CentralEurope from April to May. The species is widespread throughout #Eurasia and is characterized i.a by a particularly #firm root #tuber. M. Kılıc et al. (2019) describe the in vitro #anticholinesteraseactivity and "fractions from tubers with #neuroprotectivepotential".

The theme for today's Tune Tuesday is Wide Open Spaces. Here is my pick:
