Flowering in early summer, aquilegias fill the seasonal gap between the last of the spring bulbs and the main flush of summer perennials.

Aquilegia ‘Winky Double Rose-White’ is one of several varieties in the Winky series, valued for their mildew resistance and upward-facing blooms. This compact variety bears fully double flowerheads that start out a fresh green and mature to pale pink and white. Unlike many aquilegias, ‘Winky Double Rose-White’ comes true from seed.

Grow Aquilegia ‘Winky Double Rose-White’ in fertile, moist but well-drained soil in sun to partial shade. Lift and divide clumps every three to five years and mulch annually with well-rotted manure or compost. Aquilegias are prone to self-seeding around the garden.
