Aquilegia alpina is a compact, clump-forming perennial native to the high meadows of the Alps. It features elegant, nodding, violet-blue flowers with short spurs that rise on slender stems above delicate, fern-like, blue-green foliage. Reaching up to 24 inches in height, it thrives in moist, well-drained soils and is ideal for rock gardens, woodland borders, or cottage settings. While it prefers partial shade, it can tolerate full sun with adequate moisture and is known to attract pollinators.
