One of the best old-fashioned, cottage garden flowers, aquilegias produce bonnet- shaped flowers that will add an informal note to any planting scheme.'White bonnets' is a lovely variety with pale green foliage and creamy-white flowers. It blooms in early summer, and is a useful plant for bridging the gap between late spring bulbs and early summer perennials.
