Aquilegia or Columbine 
The Aquilegias or Columbines are among the most elegant 
of the hardy perennial plants. They do well in full sun, but 
are best suited to semi-shady locations. They are most com' 
monly used in the long'spurred mixtures which cover a wide 
range of soft, delicate, distinct shades. 
We have made quite a study of the Columbines of late years 
and have taken great pains to secure the seed from the very 
best strains as a foundation in our plantings. 
COLUMBINE IN SEPARATE COLORS 
Some distinct varieties have been developed. Groups of a single va' 
riety may be planted to produce desired color effects. 
Prices for Columbine in separate colors: Each, 35c; 6 for #1.75;
