Aquilegia (Columbine)
The columbine is a very sought after plant for its unique flower and leaf forms.  Dispersed
throughout the Northern Hemisphere areas of the world, this clump forming perennial is at
home in open woodlands, mountainous areas, and meadows.  The divided leaves are broke
down in 2 to 3 lobes, are bluish green in color, and held nicely above the ground.  In spring
and early summer flowers of a variety of colors and forms are borne over top the basal rosette
of leaves.  This genus contains many exciting and unique cultivars that shine in the shade.
Aquilegia (Columbine) Growing Tips
Columbines prefer woodland settings, and especially like growing under deciduous trees that
enable winter/early spring sun and summer shade.  Mixing compost into the planting hole helps
maintain a more even soil moisture and fertilizes a growing plant.  When, growing plants under
trees make sure the pH is in a safe range of 5.5-7.0.  Many tree leaves produce acidic soils
through decomposition.  Side dress plants annually in the fall with compost or light organic
matter. If plants are to be mulched the mulch will usually be enough fertilizer to maintain full
blooming power the following spring and summer.  A. vulgaris species can be grown in full
sun as long as the soil stays evenly moist at all times.
