European Columbine (Aquilegia vulgaris 'Dorothy Rose') |
Have OP Perennials Flowers Full Sun Part Sun Part Shade |
DND's All Seeds Swap #9 (2022) - Jlee160 - 2021 This unusual selection features lacy blue-green foliage that forms a low mound, with taller stems bearing tiny double flowers. The blooms are soft-pink and absolutely packed with layers of petals like flowers set inside of flowers. A British introduction was first unveiled at the Chelsea Flower Show in 1999. Since Columbines are relatively short-lived, allow some of the plants to go to seed and self-sow. Leaf miners or sawflies may disfigure leaves around flowering time. Simply trim off the ugly foliage to rejuvenate. USDA zones: 3-8. |
