Description
Add a burst of colour and charm to your garden with Columbine Winky Red and White (Aquilegia). This beautiful plant features eye-catching two-tone flowers, with bright red outer petals and crisp white centres. Blooming from May to July, these nodding blooms add a classic cottage garden feel and bring interest to mixed borders.
Unlike taller columbine varieties, Winky Red and White is more compact, growing to about 30-45 cm tall. This makes it perfect for the front of borders, smaller garden spaces, or even pots and containers. Its bushy growth and striking flowers create a lively display wherever it's planted.
This plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and grows well in well-drained soil with added compost or organic matter. It also attracts bees and pollinators, helping to support wildlife in your garden.
Supplied as bare root plants, Columbine Winky Red and White is easy to plant in spring and will give you reliable, colourful blooms year after year.
Choose Columbine Winky Red and White for a garden full of vibrant colour and classic charm.
