Kirigami™ Deep Blue & White Columbine

Aquilegia caerulea 'Deep Blue & White'

Kirigami Deep Blue & White Columbine is a compact native wildflower perennial that forms a delicate upward mound of fern-like foliage.  Distinctive large upward facing flowers with white face petals and indigo blue outer petals and spurs bloom throughout spring attracting hummingbirds.  Removing stems after flowering may encourage another bloom.  Flowers best in filtered sun and rich well-drained soils. 

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Low Maintenance.  Leaf miner can be a serious pest with many aquileia species and hybrids.  Freely self seeds.  Keep soils uniformly moist after bloom to prolong foliage appearance.
LANDSCAPE USES:  Accents or Group Plantings, Naturalized Areas, Wildlife Garden,  Rock Gardens, Woodland Gardens, and Containers.

COMPANION PLANTS:  White Wood Aster,  Bleeding Hearts,  Foam Flower
