Aquilegias, also known as Columbines, are staple cottage garden perennial favourites, with their nodding bonnet-like flowers often self-seeding to bring early to mid- summer colour to borders, pathways and gravel gardens. The wonderfully frilly foliage appears first followed by tall stems topped with the delicate looking but sturdy star-shaped flower heads.

*PLEASE NOTE* Images are for illustration purposes only, size of bulb may vary as well as colour of flower.

Our Summer flowering bulbs are available for dispatch during the months of March - May . If you have also ordered plug plants for dispatch in these months, we will send your bulbs during the same week. Smaller orders are dispatched via Royal Mail 24 , larger orders via Parcelforce 24

If you have ordered Summer flowering bulbs only (or other non-plug plant varieties), we will allocate your order to a week in March - May for dispatch. You will receive an email after ordering to confirm when you should expect these.

Aquilegias are pretty additions to the spring/summer border especially if you are creating a cottage garden/woodland feel.
Plant them in multi-purpose compost into pots to grow on and transfer them into their flowering position in any soil in late spring. Space them 30cms apart.  
Initially, it is best to plant them in fertile well-drained soil in either full sun or partial shade. 
Aquilegias have long tap roots (meaning they search for water) so they are quite drought tolerant, once established.
