stupid bunnies wrecked my columbines!

I've never had bunnies or deer defoliate my columbines. If you discover they are the problem, your only option is to fence or use repellents. I have had insect damage though. There is an insect called a columbine sawfly which strips off the leaves and leaves bare stems. You should look it up. Here's a link that may help: www.maine.gov/agriculture/pi/pestsurvey/pestinfo/cs.pdf

WANTED: Blue or Red Leaf Columbine
Q

Semiaquilegia ecalcarta is a very small plant with leaves flushed and edged with a reddish/pink tone, and the flowers are somewhat similar to what you have described. Is this possibly what you could have seen? In terms of blue leaved columbines, A. flabellata has leaves with a pronounced bluish cast to them. Neither of the above are US natives, however.

What can I do about leaf miner on all my columbine?
Q

The most effective solution is to cut off the affected leaves, or if the whole plant is infested cut the plant to the ground. Keep it moist and it will send up new foliage. Once you have leaf miners it's hard to eradicate them. For most columbines, they are more an unsightly nuisance than a danger, so most gardeners just live with them.

or ignore them ... columbine is a rather short lived biennial type plant that reseeds rather freely but not all that aggressively ... so it really doesn't make too mush sense to waste a lot of time or money on fixing the problem .. IMHO .... besides.. it makes a green plant a variegated plant.. lol ken
