Description
Aquilegia, often called the Columbine or granny's Bonnet is a quintessential favourite in cottage style gardens. They are beautiful perennials with incredibly intricate flowers, rising on long, straight stems above mounds of scalloped grey-green foliage.
In this collection:
Aquilegia Vulgaris 'Winky Blue White': Each flower has eye-catching purple-blue outer petals and rearward pointing spurs with two-tone blue and white inner petals.
Aquilegia Vulgaris 'Winky Red White': With upward facing flowers, they have stunning white tipped, red outer petals and the pointing spurs have two-tone red and white inner petals.
Recommended by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators', the late spring and early summer flowers are a favourite with butterflies and bees.
They are best grown in partial shade and your Aquilegia plants prefer moist but well drained soil. They do well in containers too and make delightful cut flowers, lasting well in a vase. Aquilegia readily self-seed, and you'll notice them popping up all over your garden, increasing your collection, and they're ideal gifts for your gardening friends!
Supplied as 2 x established plants in 9cm pots, ready for planting out, growing to a height of 60cm (2ft).
