description for "Columbine: Aquilegia canadensis 'Corbett'"
'Corbett,' a relatively new variety of Canadian columbine, was found near Corbett, Maryland, but is equally at home throughout most of the continental United States. Contrary to its miniature, delicate appearance, it is very hardy. The flowers are held above the foliage and they nod pleasantly. The spurs are about an inch long. The foliage on 'Corbett' is bright green, considerably more showy than other Columbine. -- edited by dtd pbcouchman
