Aquilegia X Caerulea ‘Origami Red And White’ (Columbine)

Aquilegia X Caerulea ‘Origami Red And White’ is a charming perennial valued for its elegant red and white flowers, soft green divided foliage, and compact garden habit. Its upward-facing blooms feature crimson-red outer petals with contrasting white centres, creating a bright, refined display through late spring to early summer. This makes it an excellent choice for adding seasonal colour to cottage-style gardens, mixed borders, and shaded garden pockets.

This columbine is ideal for customers wanting a graceful, easy-care flowering plant that brings colour without overwhelming the garden. It performs well in full sun to partial shade, attracts pollinators, and works beautifully planted in groups for a soft, natural look. Its compact size also makes it suitable for smaller spaces, edging, and container-style feature planting. RHS lists ‘Origami Red and White’ as a herbaceous perennial reaching up to around 60 cm, with crimson sepals, long straight spurs, and white petals. Spring Hill Nursery also lists it as flowering in late spring to early summer, suited to full sun or partial shade, with 12–18 inch spacing.
