Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A must have for your Springtime ‘Girly Garden’! ‘Rose Barlow’ Columbine bears “dreamy” double pink blooms quite profusely on a strong, reliable, almost bushy plant – 30” tall and 2’ across. The flowers are held at an angle atop the upright stems and are sweet in cut flower arrangements. Tres romantic coupled with “Forget-me-nots”, or Omphaloides linifolia, and Cynoglossum ‘Blue Showers’. For best show, grow in rich, composty soil. Cut back to 1” tall after bloom is finished and the foliage will pop back up and look pretty in Summer. Cut back again in Fall. Self sows!
