Have you ever seen the Barlow variety of columbine? Bred for cut flower production, it has tall strong stems and beautiful ruffled blooms in colors like purples, blues, and light pinks! We start these from seed and plant in early spring to get blooms in late spring/early summer the following year. A perennial plant, this cut flower likes well draining soil, full sun to part shade, but needs more moisture in full sun. Otherwise they’re tolerant of dry and more good news: they like crappy soil!
