Key Features

  • An ever-changing mix of bold two-tone flowers that give your borders a painterly, high-impact look with very little effort from one season to the next
  • Flowers early in the season, just as spring bulbs finish and before summer blooms begin, offering a seamless continuation of colour and structure in the garden
  • The uniquely spurred blooms are a magnet for bees and butterflies, making them ideal for wildlife-friendly planting and perfect for gardeners who want to support pollinators
  • Once established they're fully hardy, low maintenance, and happy to self-seed in time, meaning you can enjoy their benefits for years with very little input
  • Perfect for cottage-style gardens and informal borders, and a brilliant way to add interest and height without the fuss of staking or constant watering

Description

Amazing! This enchanting collection brightens up the garden from early summer. Aquilegia 'McKana Hybrids' boast colour combinations that seem almost hand-painted. Bold, tropical-style blooms with flared spurs, elegant poise and old-fashioned charm.

Each bloom is a two-tone marvel, with sepals in one colour and petals in another. You might get crimson with yellow, purple with white, or coral pink with soft cream. It’s that unpredictable mix-and-match look that makes these so special and keeps your borders lively year after year.

These are tough, hardy perennials that come back reliably each spring, bridging the tricky gap between spring bulbs and full-on summer colour. Plus, the bees absolutely love them, so they're perfect if you're looking to attract pollinators into your garden.

Top Tips
Ideal for the front of the bed or border, these mixed columbines will thrive in a moist but well drained soil in a partial or dappled shady position.
Care Information
  • Grow in fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade.
  • To encourage more flowers, and prevent self-seeding, deadhead regularly. Cut back foliage after flowering to promote fresh growth in late summer.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
