Product description

Also known as Granny’s Bonnet, McKana’s Giant Aquilegia is an unusual flowering perennial with mid-green foliage topped with flowers from late spring to early summer. These blooms have a delicate appearance with long spurs and bright yellow stamens. They are highly attractive to pollinators, enticing bees and butterflies into the garden.

Grow Aquilegia in full sun or partial shade in moist but well-draining soil. Sow indoors from April to May and harden off gradually before transplanting seedlings to their allocated growing site from June, after the risk of frost has passed, allowing 30cm between plants. Flowers emerge from May to June the following year. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong the flowering period and cut the foliage back to ground level in late autumn, ready for the plant to re-emerge the following spring.
