Aquilegia canadensis 'Little Lanterns'
Little Lanterns Columbine, dwarf red Zones: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
'Little Lanterns' is a great selection of wild Columbine which grows less than 1 foot tall. It has the same lovely green/blue glaucous leaves and deep red and yellow flowers. Give it sun or shade and very well drained, lean soil. Due to it's shorter stature, 'Little Lanterns' might be better suited for the right next to the path or wall, or the middle of the rock garden. Collect its seeds and sow them where you want more or let it naturalize at will. Cat# 1326
