Thank you Linda and Marilyn for the very nice comments. I tip my hat to you.

I'm sorry I don't remember the name, it was a package of mixed colors that I planted several years ago. That is 2 plants growing close together, one is yellow. Sad

bummer! I was going to look for it as an addition to my yard, it's so pretty. The left hand side that shows the 2 colors. Is that one plant, or 2 inter-twined? The yellow on it looks different from the yellow ones on the right.

Thank you Vic, Tee, and Mary, I'm so pleased that you all like it! Thumbs up


Mary, the plant on the left with the 2 colors is a different plant, the one on the right has all yellow blooms, they grew so close together that sometimes the stalks intermingles and looks like one. If you would like to grow them just pick up a package of mixed Columbine seeds, they are easy to grow, very hardy and once established are quite drought tolerant as they send their roots really deep into the ground. They do need at least semi-shade in the afternoon.
