Aquilegias are traditional cottage garden plants, with delicate, nodding bell-shaped flowers and attractive foliage. These reliable perennial plants, also known as columbine or granny's bonnet, flower prolifically in May and June.
Aquilegia is easy to grow from seed, either packet seed purchased from a garden supplier or you can collect seed. Since Aquilegia freely self seed, they also grow themselves from seed. To grow from seed, sow into trays or small pots in an unheated greenhouse from late winter onward and leave to germinate.
Performs best in full sun to part shade, in average, medium moisture, well-drained soils. Seriously dislikes poorly drained soils! Rich, moist soils in part shade are preferred. Do not let the soil dry out.. . . . .364011236117!]
