AQUILEGIA SEEDS

The Aquilegia genus, commonly known as Columbines or Granny's Bonnets, is a graceful member of the Ranunculaceae family. Renowned for its intricate, spurred flowers in a wide range of colours, including blue, purple, red, pink, and white, Aquilegia brings a delicate charm to cottage gardens, borders, and woodland settings.

Native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, Aquilegia thrives in well-drained soils and sunny to partially shaded locations. These hardy perennials are easy to grow and often self-seed, creating naturalistic drifts of flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer. Species like Aquilegia vulgaris are particularly cherished for their elegance and ability to attract pollinators such as bees and hummingbirds.

The Aquilegia genus combines beauty and resilience, making it a favourite for gardeners seeking low-maintenance plants with unique floral appeal. Its timeless blooms and adaptability ensure Aquilegia remains a staple in both traditional and modern garden designs.
