This antique columbine, with many overlapping pointed petals, was named after the granddaughter of Charles Darwin. She was a plant hybridizer, editor, mother of six, and more! This form of columbine has flowered in spring to early summer gardens since the early 17th century in England. It is a stalwart survivor, prized for its extravagant petals held on branching stems. It easily self-sows into moist, fertile, well-drained soils.
