GrowJoy McKana Hybrids Aquilegia Plant

McKana Hybrids are vigorous growers, but they typically focus on establishing their root systems during the first season. You can expect the most prolific blooming display starting in their second year.

While they prefer partial shade, they can handle full sun if you live in a cooler climate. In hotter regions, however, they will perform best with protection from the intense afternoon heat to prevent wilting.

Yes, McKana Hybrids are considered non-toxic, making them a safe choice for gardens frequented by cats and dogs.

Columbines require rich, well-draining soil to thrive. If your garden has heavy clay, mix in organic matter like compost to improve drainage and ensure the soil pH stays within the ideal 6.0 to 7.0 range.

These plants have medium deer resistance. While they aren't a primary target, hungry deer may still sample them, so you may want to use a repellent if deer pressure is high in your area.

Because they reach heights of 2 to 3 feet, they are best suited for the middle of a border. Their nodding flowers and spurred petals add a delicate, airy texture that pairs well with lower-growing perennials.
