Northern Wildflowers Columbine Wild Pkg.

Approximately 80 seeds per pack, covers 30 ft²

Wild Columbine (Aquilegia canadensis) is a hardy, easy-to-maintain native plant and does well in a variety of poor soil conditions, from sand to rock gardens. Its shallow roots make it a good option for planting on septic beds, and it also transplants very well. The yellow and orange flowers are some of the first to come up in the spring and are popular with hummingbirds.
