shades in the Long-Spurred Aquilegias, coupled 
with their graceful form, has given a great im- 
petus to the culture of the Columbine, and the 
plant has the additional advantage of thriving 
in semi-shaded positions. When cut, Aquilegias 
provide some of the most charming and refined 
flowers it is possible to have for table decoration. 
Seed may be sown under glass in March or April,

enough; or a sowing may be made in the open 
ground in June. Hardy perennial.

need in the greenhouse during the late summer 
and early autumn months, especially to follow 
annuals grown under glass for spring and early 
summer blooming. Sow the seed in February or 
March, and transplant the seedlings 2 inches 
apart into boxes. When large enough transfer to 
pots those required for indoor decoration.

with generous treatment, plants may be flowered

pans or small pots as fast as they become large 
enough, shifting on to larger pots as growth 
requires.

throughout many months of the year under 
glass, make invaluable summer bedding plants, 
owing to their sturdy free-flowering habit.
