Variegated Columbine

But variegated columbine (Aquilegia vulgaris 'Woodside Variegata') offers an even more interesting foliage than most types. Columbine flowers come in many colors; some are even bi-colored. Columbines can have yellow, white, red, blue, purple or pink blossoms. They can reach 2 feet in height (taller when in full bloom). Columbine plants bloom in late spring to early summer and re-seed readily if you don't deadhead them.
