Aquilegia flowers come in all sorts of shapes, but this is one of the more unusual, looking like a ballerina’s dress made up of several blooms set one inside the other. All in a subtle shade of rose-pink set off by the bluish foliage. Sun or semi-shade. Any reasonable soil. 24 in. 1 litre pot.

Not widely available so it sells well for us - there's something of the cottage garden about the name as well as the plant itself!
Cut back spent flowering stems in mid summer. Otherwise not much else to do.
