| | | Columbine?
Is this Columbine? Or is it a garden escapee (it was close to gardens)?  
Thanks. |

We have Columbine in the garden and growing wild all around us and the colour variety is amazing. A very easy plant to grow.

Yes Columbine. Unfortunately most columbine plants seen in the wild originated from someone's garden |

Hi Pete
Nice photo! Shows how an apparently innocuous escape can start to become a problem. We have the same on one of our local Downs.
All the best

Hiya Pete,
I found Columbine in the woods a couple of weeks ago and found it quite striking - seeing that blue, and so tall (about 1 metre).
