Aquilegia vulgaris 'Ruby Port' is an heirloom columbine with dark ruby-red, double flowers with short spurs. This is the first columbine I ever grew, and it's still one of my favorites. A classic!
Columbine 'Ruby Port' looks especially stunning next to the silver-green foliage of Lychnis coronaria or Digitalis 'Silver Fox'. It has tall stems for cutting.
Also known as Double-flowered Granny's Bonnet and Aquilegia vulgaris var. stellata plena 'Ruby Port'. Shade tolerant. Hardy perennial in zones 3-9.
