Description
Aquilegia ‘Crimson Star’ is a striking perennial known for its long-spurred, bright crimson-red flowers with a contrasting white corolla. Blooming for 4–6 weeks in late spring to early summer, its elegant flowers rise above a compact mound of fern-like, light green foliage, creating a dramatic display. Growing to about 60–75 cm in height, it thrives in moist, well-drained soil and prefers full sun to partial shade. Though short-lived, it self-seeds prolifically, ensuring its presence in the garden for years. This variety is a favourite for cottage gardens, shaded areas, and cut flower arrangements, adding a touch of vibrancy and charm to any landscape
