Description
A capture of a beautiful lonely purple Columbine bloom shot with a shallow depth of field and selctive focus. I then added a painterly effect along with two textures so the image would have the look of a painting.
Columbine is a hardy perennial, which propagates by seed. It will grow to a height of 15 to 20 inches. It will grow in full sun; however, it prefers growing in partial shade and well drained soil, and is able to tolerate average soils and dry soil conditions. Columbine is rated at hardiness zone 3 in the USA so does not require mulching or protection in the winter.[6][7]
Large numbers of hybrids are available for the garden, since the British A. vulgaris was joined by other European and North American varieties. [8] Aquilegia species are very interfertile, and will self-sow.[9] Some varieties are short-lived so are better treated as biennials. The following hybrid cultivars have gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
