My first bloom was pink but today the plant has a yellow bloom. Is it possible this is one plant with different color blooms. Is this common. #zone5 #zone5b #columbine #aquilegia

I would think that this much of a color variation would be quite UNcommon! I'm sure you checked it out thoroughly, but is it possibly coming from another plant? An extra seedling cast into the same pot? A self-seed from another plant near by? 🤔

@KariSamuel I agree, I thought that was crazy to be from the same plant. I love my bonus plant. It's like a 2 for 1 deal.

@SikoMa I just bought this plant so it's blooming earlier than expected. My existing Columbines in the garden are still aways from blooming.

@teamgardentags I entered this new Columbian Kirigami in the encyclopedia today but cannot find a way to go back in to edit. Can you please help direct me on where to go to edit the entry.
