Considering my recently chronicled difficulties in growing columbines in this garden, I'd not want to waste money buying any more. However, I was just given a twenty dollar gift certificate to a local nursery. I picked out two large heucheras at $10.99 each. On my way back to the checkout counter, these two columbines: Winkie Double 'Red And White' and Winkie Double 'Dark Blue And White' caught my eye, and I just had to take them along (no mean feat since I now had to carry four plants in my arms). I figured I could use my gift certificate to pay for the columbines, and I'd pay for the heucheras out of my pocket; thus the columbines were essentially free. Besides... I think they winked at me.
