A widespread group of plants with numerous species found throughout the mountains and canyons of the western U.S. and Europe. These plants grow best in enriched garden soils that are well drained, avoiding heavy, slow draining clay soils.

Columbine likes evenly moist soil. Overhead irrigation in the late afternoon and evening hours may encourage powdery mildew.

Most species prefer morning sun and afternoon shade.
