gdn - wide view ; three aquilegia plants
Several years ago, I bought some Aquilegia [Granny's Bonnets or Columbine] - now, I have them growing as volunteers in various places around the garden, very popular with the bees ... and prolific with spreading their seeds.
Three different colours here - closest one is pink and white, the middle plant produces deep red and the far one is all pink ... no blue ones so far this year.
Only problem I have is that the stems and leaves are easily damaged by strong winds, so I need to provide some supports and tie-in the floppiest stems, and these are growing in - or very close to a dwarf stone wall that raises this bed up about 9 inches.
