Rocky Mountain Columbine

Doug,
You said: "Aquilegia alpina is a terrific plant if you can find it....
Aquilegia bertolonii is my favorite columbine...
Aquilegia caerulea – the Rocky Mountain Columbine..."

I came upon a wild caerulea last week in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado. Please see picture attachment. Sorry the color is bad, the camera settings were played with by my young daughter!

I can't find wild seed for any of these three. Can you help?

Thanks, - Steve from Kansas

Doug says that he joined NARGS and participated in all their seed exchanges to obtain all manner of seed. There are also specialist seed companies listed on that site - check out the "links" page. You won't have any trouble with these seeds - easy to find through these folks.
