Blue Dream Columbine Seeds - Favorite Perennial Wildflower for Colorado
The Western Blue Columbine is a perennial plant that typically grows 24-36 inches tall, with all of its leaves growing from the base. The bell-shaped flowers can reach up to 3 inches wide and feature long spurs, with the Blue Columbine variety being mostly blue and a single type. This plant blooms from May to mid-June in USDA hardiness zones 3-10, which range from the Rocky Mountains to various plant communities at elevations of 5,000-11,000 feet, including sagebrush, pinyon-juniper, mountain brush, aspen, Douglas fir-White fir, aspen-forb, and spruce-fir.
The Western Blue Columbine thrives in full sun to shady conditions and moist soils, preferring a pH between 6-8 and ample organic matter. It attracts hummingbirds, making it a favorite among wildflower enthusiasts. To enhance germination, the seeds benefit from a moist chilling process at 38 degrees Fahrenheit for 2 months. As an alternative, the seeds can be placed in a moistened paper towel and then stored in the freezer for a day or two.
For planting, the recommended rate is 1 lb. per 7,200 square feet or 6 lbs. per acre. The Western Blue Dream Columbine, a specific variety, is a popular choice among spring perennial wildflowers that can be grown in USDA hardiness zones 3-8 across the United States.
