HUGE BLUE COLUMBINE Aquilegia

This mix includes seeds from our variety of blue columbines, and can include blue with blends or combinations with white and purple. Some of these plants are impressively large, and our favorite is almost bush-like with over 100 flowers per plant! The columbine flowers are held high above fern-like foliage. Plants are easy to grow, and will gently self-seed if allowed. Plants can be grown in sun or and are tolerant of poor soils and drought. An excellent addition to the garden, especially in tricky areas.
