Aquilegia

Really showing ignorance now.I have Aquilegia in my garden and when I first put them in they are beautiful large flowers but after that when they appear they are small and self coloured, what am I doing wrong,I keep buying new ones in the hope that I get it right.

 

Hi T,
I've just sent you some of mine with the ones you asked for.
They cross pollinate and don't come true to type.
I have had some really nice ones,and wierd ones :eek:

 

Thanks for that,its interesting to see what happens when they come up.I'm always asuming its me thats not green fingered but I'm getting quit impressed with what I have learnt up to now with a little help from my friends of course this web site is great. Off to the garden festival now at Ness.
