Alien Aquilegia

Hi guys,

I bought some bare root Aquilegia today which have already sprouted in the bag. They look quite alien like :) Should I cut them back or leave them alone? 

Thanks image

    I would leave them alone - they'll green up and adjust to the light and better living conditions image

    Give them a good soak and keep them in bright conditions. They will not need heat, and are better off outside or in a coldframe. They will soon green up.

    Thank you :)

    Have put them somewhere bright so hopefully they will green up tomorrow with the nice weather that is predicted.

    It may take a few days to green up. Don't worry.
