Description

Light perennials, highly valued in gardens, columbines require a light, humus-rich soil that does not lack moisture, where they colonise the ground with their spontaneous self seeding.

A very beautiful species with finely cut, light bluish green foliage, topped with large, highly fragrant flowers with very fine spurs, cream-white sepals and light yellow petals that harmonize with the foliage. Superb in the slightly shaded border of the garden.
