Turning Back Time

Aquilegia 'William Guiness'

Aquilegia 'William Guiness' Aquilegia x vulgaris

A dramatic colour variation of a cottage favourite. The deep purple, almost black bonnets contrast beautifully with the white corollas. The flowers are 3-4 cm across and last up to a fortnight in a vase. The foliage is fernlike in a dark, glaucus hue. It will self seed and should be kept away from other varieties if you want the seedlings to stay true to type as they hybridise easily.
