Aquilegia canadensis 'Little Lanterns'
Aquilegia canadensis 'Little Lanterns'
Common Name: dwarf wild columbine

'Little Lanterns' is short in stature, but free with flowers! Numerous pendant flowers of red and yellow cover the plant in late spring. This selection resolves a few grievances that some have expressed about Aquilegia canadensis by having consistantly shorter stature and more intense color than the species.

Height: 12-18 Inches
Spread: 12 Inches
USDA Hardiness Zone: 3-8

Thalictrum rochebrunianum

Height: 4-6 Feet
Spread: 2-3 Feet
USDA Hardiness Zone: 4-8
