About This Plant
Aquilegia Biedermeier Mix 3 (Columbine), 'Columbine', is valued for seasonal interest and the role it plays in PNW garden borders.
Columbines have airy spurred flowers in many colors and delicate fern-like foliage. Western Red Columbine (A. formosa) is the PNW native species.
Part sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 3 to 8. Watch for leafminer. Self-sows gently.
For a Pacific Northwest native perennial of similar character, consider Aquilegia formosa (Western Red Columbine), Tellima grandiflora (Fringecups), or Dicentra formosa (Pacific Bleeding Heart) , all support native pollinators.
