Seed Needs, Columbine Barlow Mixture (Aquilegia vulgaris) Twin Pack of 40 Seeds Each

Grow a colorful mix of this standout Barlow columbine series from seed this season. Unlike most columbines, the Barlow series (Aquilegia vulgaris var. Stellata) lacks the signature spur behind its flower heads, but makes up for it with multiple layers of narrow, spiky petals… each of which have cupped sides resembling those of a canoe. Tightly-bundled stamens bear bright yellow anthers and protrude to or beyond the forward-pointing, most central petals. Barlow cultivars are the first columbine hybrids to bear multi-petaled, spurless flowers.
