While she's certainly a beauty that Canadians can be proud of, the columbine flower is a symbol of Toronto that should make them proud as well. Columbine flowers are perennials that grow wild in Asia, Europe, and North America. But, they can also be grown in your very own garden. They sport a lovely and unique bloom that is shaped somewhat like a cross between a bell and a star. Some who see the columbine are even reminded of a court jester's hat. The flowers are usually between one and three inches in size and come in a wide variety of colors, including yellow, white, pink, blue, purple, and combinations of colors. Hybrid columbines are available in almost any color imaginable-even black! The plants have delicate foliage and slim, spindly stems that give them an elegant appearance. Columbines make a great addition to any garden, especially if you're interested in attracting hummingbirds since they produce a lot of nectar. They're also surprisingly easy to grow despite their elegant and fragile appearance. They grow best in partial shade and well-drained soil, but they'll also do just fine in soils that aren't as nutritious and that are drier. If you live in a cooler climate, you can plant your columbine in full sun, but this generally isn't a good idea in warmer areas. They can be grown in flowerbeds, pots, and in rock gardens. You can begin growing columbine from seed right in your flower garden. Seeds should be planted in the spring and covered with about an eight of an inch of soil. You can also purchase young plants to transplant to your garden. In either case, they should be placed from sixteen to eighteen inches apart. Once the plants are established, you'll need only water them occasionally and use a bit of fertilizer twice each growing season to keep them healthy. Established columbine can be separated in the spring to increase your stock. They'll continue to bloom throughout the spring, summer, and into the early fall. Because they're very sturdy plants, they're likely to even survive the first light frosts. Columbine become dormant in the winter and don't require mulch or other covering to protect the throughout the winter. The columbine is as tough and beautiful a plant as fellow Toronto native Trish Stratus, but it's one you can grow in your garden no matter what part of North America you live in. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Wesley Berry is member of the American Academy of Floriculture (AAF) and President of Wesley Berry Flowers (http://www.wesleyberryflowers.com), a successful multi-million dollar floral business that was established in 1946.
