Ruby Port Aquilegia
How to Say Ruby Port Aquilegia
Plant Features
Another Aquilegia Plant in the wine family, the Ruby Port Aquilegia Plant is also true to color. The Columbine genes must be superior when it comes to color saturation and this ability to produce such rich wine shades surely makes every gardener happy. A spur-less Columbine, this blossom could actually be called a "quadruple" rather than a double, it is so full. Known to attract butterflies, this one's a keeper!
