AQUILEGIA PINK FLAMINGO-Columbine-Columbine 'Pink Flamingo'

 

AQUILEGIA PINK FLAMINGO

Columbine

Large, pink, medium-spurred flowerheads open in late spring on this new columbine variety. Coming quite true from seed it should be planted away from other aquilegias with which it could hybridise.

For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
