Aquilegia alpina

Sowing method: Sow indoors Feb-June, outdoors Aug-Oct. In seed tray, give warmth for 2-4 weeks (18-22°C), then a cold period in the refrigerator (+4°C) for 4-6 weeks, then gradually warm up to room temperature, after which germination will follow. Sowing directly into the soil is also possible; in that case, simply let it overwinter, and germination will occur in spring.
