plant combo suggestions, please

**"* F* <c*@mail.com>**

 Dear All,
My dear husband loves Columbines, and I do not. I would appreciate them more if they didn't look ratty and disfigured with Columbine Leafminer from mid-July on, but there you have it. Last spring when I was ordering seeds for the things I DO like, he asked me to order Aquilegia. Since he pretty much defers to me when it comes to other plant choices and garden design (and I'm annoyingly picky, I admit) I went ahead and ordered them, hoping that they wouldn't germinate. They did.  Every one.

I now have two large areas of assorted Columbines and I want to interplant these areas with something that won't overwhelm the little suckers but at the same time might draw the eye from the leafminer damage and generally look splendid later in the season.  Any suggestions?

with thanks,
C.L.
