Adlumia fungosa
Botanical: Adlumia fungosa; Fumaria fungosa.
Dutch: dubbelhoed.
Adlumia [named after Major John Adlum, an American author] is a biennial climber belonging to the Fumarieae, a subfamily of the Papaveraceae.
Adlumia grows naturally in North America, mainly in mountainous regions. The tendrils are supported on the ground by their own leaves and, despite their fragile structure, can climb to heights of 20 to 40 centimeters. The white or purplish flowers, which hang in clusters, appear in June to October. The long corolla remains closed for some time, after which it tentatively opens at the outer edges. After fertilization, the corolla does not fall off but expands like a sponge.
