Description
An herbaceous perennial with an upright clump-forming habit. Lovely, blue-green aquilegia-type (columbine) leaves. Panicles of lemon-yellow flowers are petal-less and fringed. Flowers in late June through into autumn.
The yellow flowers in this species is a hiatus from the dominating pinks, lilacs and purples throughout the rest of this genus. In actual fact, the colour comes from the abundant yellow stamens of its flowers. This plant may need staking in windy locations. Attracts bees and butterflies. Relatively few pests and disease problems but watch for powdery mildew.
Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit 1993
