(P) to 12″. Eastern Siberia to Northwest China. This unique Columbine has long, spurred petals of a deep, purplish brown colour and smaller, shorter sepals that are a definite green. Prominent, yellow central cone of pistils and stamens add a nice contrast. Tight clumps of basal foliage are biternate and a finely pubescent, bluish green, with the nodding, fragrant flowers held on short, sturdy, upright stems. Whilst like all Columbines, a relatively short-lived perennial, this one has a distinctive appeal. Sun/partial shade. 4 & T2
