PERENNIAL FLOWER AQUILEGIA COLUMBINE NORA BARLOW 0.75 GRAM ~ APPROX 600 SEEDS

Item Description
This has to be one of the easiest and most rewarding Perennials available producing masses of narrow, pink sepals that fade to white towards their tips and are sometimes flushed with green.  One of the most popular forms, it is highly prized for its bright, cheerful flowers and graceful, upright habit.   Provide it with a humus rich, slightly acidic soil and you will be rewarded with an abundance of blooms in late spring and early summer. Excellent as a cut flower.  Height 75cm.


·        
Sow under-cover from 4-8 weeks before the last frost through to Jul, cover seeds very lightly with vermiculite and expect germination within 2 - 6 weeks at 15 to 20 °C.

·         Transplant and grow on gradually acclimatising to outdoor conditions.  Seeds sown late will over-winter under glass / cover.

·         Aquilegias will readily re-seed and can be sown direct to borders or in wild / natural grass areas.

·         Feeding is unnecessary unless the soil is exceptionally poor. An aquilegia should not need staking, but an overfed plant will flop.

Germination notes

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY - Please note seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, and type of soil, watering, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media.

Although we do everything possible to get seeds to you in the best possible condition and will provide as much help as possible, these factors are totally outside of our control and once you receive the seeds its over to you. Consequently, we can take no responsibility for the suitability to your local conditions of any variety offered, the indicative cultivation advice provided or ultimately the varieties performance. As such you should seek local advice to carefully ensure your local conditions and the time of season are appropriate to the variety purchased.
