Columbine is an early bloomer that welcomes in spring with vibrant blooms. The Winky Blue and White Columbine, or Aquilegia is an upright perennial that features long-spurred upright-facing blooms with full blue outer petals and white inner petals with blue accents. This beauty blooms during the spring and summer. Branched stems also support delicate green foliage.

This plant has a compact, upright growth habit. The Winky Blue and White Columbine can be featured in beds, borders, or mass plantings. Cut the blooms to use in arrangements. The showy flowers attract butterflies and hummingbirds, but the foliage is deer-resistant. This plant grows as a perennial in USDA zones 3 through 8.

Winky Blue and White Columbine Care

Plant the Winky Blue and White Columbine in full to partial sun. Increased light in the spring will support rapid growth and blooms, but this beauty will appreciate shade later in the growing season. Columbine needs water when the top couple inches of soil dry out. Plant in moist but well-drained soil. Apply a balanced fertilizer monthly starting in the spring. 

Deadhead the plant to keep it looking neat and prevent self-seeding. Prune the growth back to the basal leaves in the autumn.

Winky Blue and White Columbine Spacing

Winky Blue and White Columbine is an upright growing plant that will reach 18 to 20 inches tall and 12 to 15 inches wide. Space plants 8 to 10 inches apart to create a lush, continuous planting.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
