Thompson & Morgan

Also known as Columbine or Granny's Bonnet, this stunning new Aquilegia produces tight clusters of deep violet flowers that could almost be mistaken for the blooms of a Clematis! Atop tall, sturdy stems, these vibrant blooms are sure to make an impact in the garden. Aquilegia vulgaris 'Miss M.I. Huish' is easy to grow for all, and requires very little maintenance. For a truly spectacular floral show, we recommend growing this variety alongside bright whites or pale greens to create an eye-catching colour contrast. Sowing time: February to June or September to October.Sow seeds on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays. Do not cover the seed. Place container in a propagator or seal inside a polythene bag and keep at a temperature of between 15-20C (59-68F). After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination can take 1-3 months.
