Description
Hi, I'm Carrie Thomas of Touchwood, and I am crazy about plants and gardening. I grow many special, unusual and rare plants and will share seeds of some here as part of my 'Very Special Seeds' collection.
I do not think anyone else can offer such a good range of these wonderful plants. I have bred Aquilegias, granny's bonnets, columbines for many many years now and can offer you seed from some outstanding plants. Aquilegias are stalwart cottage garden favourites and can flower for you year after year.
This is a lovely , large, long-spurred Aquilegia in purple & yellow. Even better, some of the flowers are doubles! The first year it flowered, 2020, early flowers were single, later ones double, (often it can take a time for Aquilegias to settle down to produce the final sort of flower)there's a good chance for some of your offspring from these seeds to be equally glorious and desirable.
Note, you never know what the offspring will be like with aquilegias. The bees have had their fun, and as all my plants are open pollinated, Aquilegias cannot to guaranteed to come true to type, I select seed from the correct seed parent, but do not know what pollen fertilised it. Nevertheless, I've never seen a 'bad' aquilegia! I don't think you'll be disappointed.
My special interest is Aquilegias. I used to have the only 2 National Plant Collections of Aquilegias in the whole of the UK. Until the killer disease Aquilegia Downy Mildew (ADM) devastated them and I lost my business, my passion and even moved house because of it. I am now beginning to rebuild a smaller collection of these special plants. I also have seeds of loads more unusual, rare and cottage garden plants.
