Description: AQUILEGIA VULGARIS var. Stellata Plena "Black Barlow" Essential to any rambling, overgrown still picture postcard-worrhy cottage garden are reliable and easy perennials that will come back, naturalize and spread so it looks like the countryside gentlefolk have stuffed ever last bit of flowering color in every nook and cranny. Speaking of Granny's, Granny's bonnets are the old fashioned nickname of aquilegia vulgaris due to the petals similarities to the bonnets favored by granny's of yore. This showy yet dignified columbine is in the Barlow series, named after Nora Barlow nee Darwin, who was a pioneering woman in the early study of genetics. She was also the granddaughter of Charles Darwin. While she did not develop the stellata plena Columbines that now bear her and her relatives' names, she did study the fascinating members of the genus Aquilegia extensively as well as growing them in her very own English cottage garden.
