Hi guys...I just got back from a trip to Troro and Kentville in Nova Scotia. Saw some spectacular gardens there. Here's a mass of 'Semiaquilegia'.

Steve, while Aquilegias are very promiscuous not all can cross with each other. I don't think flabellata will cross with vulgaris (at least I have both sideby-side and it has never happened). Most of the North American native columbines will cross with each other. I've never read that semiaquilegia will cross with the regular columbines.
