AQUILEGIA, GIANT LONG-SPURRED HYBRIDS 
By careful selection we have produced a lovely strain of long-spurred 
Aquilegias. Their colors range through all shades of pink, rose, blue and 
yellows. A number of these in full bloom is a lovely sight in the 
garden. They are excellent for cutting and blend gracefully with other 
flowers. We suggest planting them in combination with Japanese 
Anemones so that the spot in your garden where the Columbines 
bloomed in early summer will again be colorful in the autumn. We 
offer a fine lot of big plants which will bloom the first year.
