Aquilegia Alpina 1Ltr

Native to Europe’s high meadows and mountain slopes of the Alps, Aquilegia Alpina, commonly known as Alpine Columbine, is a compact species with charming, bright violet-blue, bonnet-shaped, nodding flowers (2-3 in. wide; 5-7 cm), which rise elegantly on slender stems above a lovely fern-like, blue-green foliage.

How to grow aquilegias

1. Thrives in rich, moist but free draining soil (not too wet or too dry)
2. Flowers late spring to early summer (May/June)
3. Buy plants in spring.
4. Raise plants from seed yourself in summer.
5. Plant in a sunny or semi-shaded spot.
6. Cut back plants after flowering to stop self-seeding and freshen up foliage.
