You and Shirley have converted me...didn't realise there were so many different ones...Do the seeds come up true ?

Shirley will have to tell you the answer to that one Judy, I have only ever grown this from seed, it was packet that I bought, not tried to save seeds YET!!

Judy, Aquilegias are very promiscuous plants, so cross breeding is usually inevitable! I have grown 'Nora Barlow', 'Clem. White' & 'Clem. Blue' from seed and they've come true to form. Google Touchwood Nursery and you'll be amazed at the national collection of Aquilegias.

You're welcome, Judy. : o ))

I knew you would sort it Shirley, I will also google the National collection, thanks for the information.

Quite a few of mine are from Touchwood :-) Warning, it's VERY addicting !
I always let few of mine self seed a bit. They don't always come true but you can get some interesting new flowers.

thank you Columbine, I let mine self seed, but this is the first time I have grown this kind from seed, so will see how they fair.
