Aquilegia 'Elite Violet' 140 mm
Songbird Violet
Clite
SERIES
During trials these violet Aquilegia were the most compact varieties and produced interesting colour combinations of bi-colour flowers.
POSITION: Plant in partial shade, providing protection from the hottest sun.
Aquilegia prefer soil rich in organic matter and with good drainage.
FLOWERING: Best flowering through spring into autumn.
USE: The neat mounding habit makes them ideal to be planted in groups underneath trees, in rockeries, along borders or in pots. They make great early spring colour for cottage gardens and their elegant foliage and flowers will soften garden beds.
DURABILITY: Adequate water until established, then Aquilegia can tolerate dry periods, but perform best with regular drip irrigation.
CARE: Remove old flowers to encourage fresh new ones to continue, giving you a longer flowering period. Trim back the foliage in aufumn and apply an organic fertiliser each season.
