My wife went to her mothers yesterday and came home with a new plant. It's called Mckana's Giant. Hope I get plenty more from seeds!

Your wife certainly made a good choice CK. What a lovely fresh yellow that columbine is.

Yes I have a purple and white that is about a foot away and there are 3 yellow and red ones in the same bed. They are all normal sized bloom.
