Care Instructions for Aquilegia Earlybird Purple White:
Ideal Planting Location: Plant in a sunny or partially shaded position with well-drained soil. Aquilegia thrives in a wide range of soil types but prefers a rich, moist environment.
Planting Steps: Remove the plant from its 9cm pot and plant at the same depth as it was growing in its container. Space plants around 30cm apart to allow for growth.
Watering Tips: Water thoroughly after planting to help establish strong roots. Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods, but avoid waterlogging.
Feeding Schedule: Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth and flowering.
Deadheading and Pruning: Regularly remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and to maintain a neat appearance. Cut back any foliage in autumn once the plant has finished flowering.
Winter Care: This variety is fully hardy, and no special winter care is needed. However, adding a layer of mulch around the base can help protect the plant from extreme cold.
