The ‘Origami Yellow’ Columbine has large flowers that are completely yellow in color and have lovely long spurs. The spectacular colors are superb,especially near the front of beds and borders. Use it individually in small clumps, or massed together in combined groupings to create a stunning explosion of extended color.
You can easily grow ‘Origami Yellow’ in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. It tolerates a wide range of soils except heavy, poorly drained ones, but rich, moist soils with light to moderate shade is recommended. This upright Columbine, with a moderate growth rate, has flowering stems that reach a height of 14 to 18 inches and thrives in zones 3-9.
it is wise to remove flowering stems after bloom to encourage additional bloom. Keep soils uniformly moist after bloom to prolong attractive foliage. This distinctive foliage adds texture for the rest of the season and provides year round interest, even when the plant isn't in bloom. When foliage depreciates, plants may be cut to the ground.
‘Origami Yellow’ Columbine adds a wonderful color to your garden when in bloom, and should be planted about 12 to 18 inches apart. This plant needs to be replaced every 3-4 years since their productive life dwindles. Columbines will bloom in early to mid-spring each year with fabulous 5 spurred petals sitting above 5 petal-like sepals that combine to create beautiful color combinations.
