My Columbines

This is my rogue "flock" of Columbines that come up and spread every year in my side yard. They have all come from seeds spread from plants I purchased many years ago and planting in an entirely other part of my gardens. Those plants where the traditional looking ones and from them comes this mutant army of diverse progeny. Similar successful migrations have occurred over the years all over my gardens involving Black-eyed Susans, Purple Coneflowers, Firecracker Loosestrife and even Virginia Bluebells. I know that plants have their way of "walking" to real estate more suited to their needs.
