Aquilegia alpina

Lovely Aquilegia. My ones are just beginning to flower now, and I have a few baby plants that have seeded from last year.

It's a lovely one!

You have some pretty shades of blue and mauve in your garden.

Thanks ladies ... the only colour I seem to steer clear of is red.

They are pretty, Shirley. I have these, too. They've self-seeded gently.
I love red but seem to have a garden of purple, mauve and orange at the moment, not planned! Must be unconscious choices, I suppose.

Ange, it was well known to GoYers that I couldn't bear Orange in the garden, yet I now have Geum 'Totally Tangerine' and love it. It must be an age thing .....

Well, we are similar in age!

Three score and ten soon .....

Loving the colouring on this one, Shirley.

Loving the colouring on this one, Shirley.

Thanks Kate ...

Beautiful flowers, Shirley! 👍

David, they are slightly darker than this photo shows as my 'point and shoot' camera isn't the greatest!

We wouldn't have known, Shirley, if you hadn't told us! 😆

Even if the colour is not true to life, as we obviously would like our pictures to be, every computer, or mobile phone screen renders our pictures differently! So I wouldn't get upset over a photo not being exactly as we see it with our own eyes!

I stand by my comment above, they are beautiful! 👍

Thanks David ... :o))
