In the alphabetical plant categories, you will find plants arranged by genus, listed by botanical (latin) name and, where appropriate, by common name. The botanical names are listed at the top, the common names at the bottom.
Submit informational sites about plants directly to the most appropriate subcategory at the genus level. If a subcategory for the genus does not yet exist, you may submit the site directly to a letter category - choose the first letter of the botanical genus name. If the site features plants in more than one genus, please submit it to the most appropriate subject subcategory within the Plants category (e.g., Houseplants, Perennials, Bulbs).
Aquilegia is a genus of mostly short-lived perennials. Most of its species, hybrids, and cultivars are commonly known as columbines, and many of them are commonly used in gardens. They range from dwarf, rock-garden types to tall plants suitable for the border. This category collects informational sites about plants in this genus, and the closely related genus Semiaquilegia (spurless columbine).
