The deep purple flowers are the perfect complement to the gold and green marbled foliage. This rare leaf colour can be leveraged for contrast in your beds and it lasts into autumn.

Aquilegia are suitable for growing in a lightly shaded to morning sun position. Plant them as massed plantings, interspersed in garden beds or in large containers. After the initial flowering has finished, you can cut the stems back to the basal foliage to encourage future blooms. Leaving the last flowers of the season to form seed heads for future generations of plants is a good idea – you can collect it yourself or allow it to self sow. Keep in mind seedlings are unlikely to flower true to type as they hybridise easily.

Aquilegia should be planted in humus rich, moist, well drained soil. The flowers are suitable for picking.
