Aquilegia
Common Name: Columbine
Type: Hardy Perennial

Aquilegia, also known as Columbine, is a classic cottage garden favourite that produces elegant, nodding flowers in a beautiful range of colours — from soft pastels to rich jewel tones. Its delicate, spurred blooms rise gracefully above fern-like foliage, adding charm and movement to borders, beds, and wildflower-style plantings. Easy to grow and self-seeding, Aquilegia returns year after year, brightening the late spring to early summer garden with its timeless beauty.
