Wait, wait, wait! You guys have columbines that seed themselves to the
point of becoming pests? I gave up on columbines, though I find them
lovely, because I couldn't seem to keep one going.
What are the best growing conditions? I must have been doing something
wrong.

The only color columbine we have is this same dark purple-violet. Yes,
they have seeded themselves around to the point where they are a bit
of a pest, but they are all identical. I suspect if we brought in some
pinks or other colors the new seedlings would get pretty mixed up.
