I have not grown seed of  many wild-collected Aquilegia, but I have grown many 
of the garden forms, and at least for those sowing the seed so that they are 
exposed to light is generally deemed  the way to go. Don't bury the seeds, 
scatter them on the surface of the medium.Jim McKenneyStill snowbound in 
Maryland, thanks to the 3'-4' dike of frozen slush and snow left by the 
snowplows across the front of the driveway.

I just recently received a few seed of Aquilegia nivalis. Does anyone have any 
experience / advice in germinating that seed. Thank you.
 

Seeds of almost all species of Aquilegia respond to stratification for 1-3 
months at 4C, followed by fairly quick germination at ca. 20C. 

Alternatively, seeds can be sown outdoors in pots, now, for germination in 
spring, though with some species this can take two winters.
