Description

This is a completely unique form of aquilegia leaf variegation on an Aquilegia flabellata hybrid! Many years ago we noticed a plant which produced striking cream edging on young foliage. In early summer this new plant is an arresting talking point, the blue and white short stemmed flowers putting icing on the cake.

Sowing Advice

For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
