Description

Perennial plants, valued in gardens, columbines require a light, humus-rich soil, not lacking in moisture, where they colonise the ground with their spontaneous self seeding. They can tolerate heavy soils, but do not live there for very long. Some alpine species are difficult to cultivate.

Pure yellow.
