Aquilegia - Columbine 
Noteworthy for the charm of their flowers. The Columbines are among the most 
elegant and beautiful hardy plants, producing their graceful spurred flowers on 
stems rising 2 feet or more above the beautifully divided foliage. No other plant 
has so airy a grace as the Columbine, is more generous of its blooms, or more 
effectively adapted for cut flowers. They are not at all particular as to soil or 
location. Their period of flowering covers the late spring and early summer months.
