AQUILEGIA - Columbine 
Culture. Columbines succeed in ordinary soils containing plenty of 
humus, provided by dressings of peat and well-decayed manure. Heavy 
soils are not suitable for the hybrids, but good for the common species. 
All prefer partial shade; besides, the flowers develop better, grow larger, 
and last longer in perfection in partial shade than in sun. Plant in fall 
or spring, 8 to 10 inches apart. Best grown in groups of three or more. 
Excellent combined with Japanese Anemone.
