Aquilegia canadensis 'Corbett'
Columbine
Columbine is an all-time gardener’s favorite for its compact, low-maintenance attitude and unique, bell-shaped flowers. Aquilegia canadensis ‘Corbett’ has all of the red-flowering variety’s best attributes, with the added benefit of light, popcorn-yellow flowers resembling tiny illuminated lanterns overtop of soft, velvety-green foliage, and a mature height of 14-18”. Various bee species as well as Ruby-throated hummingbirds visit the flowers for nectar during its late April to early June bloom period. During summer and into the autumn months, ‘Corbett’ Columbine may sporadically produce flowers at the same time that its attractive seedheads are also visible. This yellow-flowering variety was discovered by Lawrence Clemens and named in honor of the Corbett Historic District in Maryland.
