Irresistible multi-colored selection, the Biedermeier Columbine (Aquilegia 'Biedermeier') is a beautiful, easy-to-grow, spring-blooming perennial! Full of nodding purple, rosy pink, light blue, and white flowers with lighter corollas, these tall stems will also be full of pollinators and bees!
This perennial will grace whatever landscape it is added to with its elegant blooms and interesting foliage! Forming mounds of lacy compound leaves with rounded lobes in blue-green all growing season long!
The lovely blue-green foliage adds texture year-round, and even fall color, to any of your perennial beds. The mix of colors and its low-growing habit make this special Columbine stand out from the rest! Cold-hardy throughout USDA growing zones 3 to 7, Biedermeier grows just 12-18 inches tall and 12 inches wide.
Planting and Application:
Quickly naturalizing and filling sweeping areas with their unique leaves and multi-colored flowers, Biedermeier can be contained by deadheading right after they finish blooming. Feel free to use them as a cut flower, to enjoy in your favorite vase! Used individually, in small groupings, or massed together to create a stunning explosion of extended color!
The Biedermeier Columbine can be used in many applications, like Rock gardens and mixed perennial gardens! They look great as a filler in garden beds or in containers, as edging along pathways, beds, and borders, in Cottage gardens and Butterfly gardens. It attracts bees and hummingbirds, but deer tend to leave it alone.

#ProPlantTips for Care:
The Biedermeier Columbine is an easy-to-grow perennial that should be planted in full sun to partial shade in fertile, moist, well-drained soil for best results. Columbines prefer a good layer of mulch or compost over their root systems. Columbines are a profuse self-seeder, so it is recommended for these to be planted 12 to 18 inches apart. The planting area could double in a few years because of the prolific reseeding characteristics of this plant. You can halt this by deadheading, and simultaneously encouraging a rebloom later in the season! Prune back the foliage in late autumn as soon as it dies back. Deer and rabbits, Columbines are also pest and disease-resistant.
- Full Sun, Afternoon Shade & Partial Shade
- Well-Drained Soil
- Regular Moisture & Appreciates Mulch
- Deadhead & Prune Late Autumn
- Pest, Deer & Rabbit Resistant
