Aquilegia vulgaris var. flore-pleno
Granny’s Bonnet Columbine |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.050.300
Columbines have been grown in gardens for centuries, and are among the most popular of perennials. Hummingbirds will often drop in to sip nectar from the flowers. This antique selection features fluffy, double flowers in a range of muted shades, over a low mound of ferny light-green foliage. Excellent for cutting. Since Columbines are relatively short lived, allow some of the plants to go to seed and self sow. Leaf miners or sawfly may disfigure leaves around flowering time. Simply trim off the ugly foliage and the plants will grow fresh leaves.
