Columbine is a spring favorite for hummingbirds, butterflies, and other pollinators, providing a nectar source when there is little else in bloom. It’s great for shady gardens.
Columbine will spread easily by seed and is considered to be a short-lived perennial—meaning it will often disappear where you plant it, and reappear in other parts of the garden! We especially like Columbine in wilder shade gardens where it is allowed to roam free. This can be valuable in shady areas where buckthorn or other invasives are removed.
