Columbine 9cm Pot Plants Aquilegia vulgaris

Common names include common columbine, and granny’s bonnet.

An elegant, early-flowering perennial, Columbine bears nodding blooms in rich shades of violet-blue to purple from May to July. Much loved by long-tongued bumblebees and other pollinators, it’s a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly gardens and meadow edges. Its finely cut, fern-like foliage provides lasting texture and interest long after the flowers have faded.

Thriving in moist but well-drained soil, Columbine grows well in sun or partial shade and will readily self-seed in cottage gardens, woodland edges, and wildflower borders. Hardy and graceful, it brings natural charm and a long season of interest to any planting scheme.

Sourced from native seed and grown in the UK, our 9cm pot plants are an ideal way to enhance your wildflower meadow or establish resilient plants in your garden or areas where seed germination can be unpredictable.

For the best results, we recommend planting 3 plants per square metre, grouping at least 3 of each species together to achieve a natural, flourishing look.
