Aquilegia, commonly known as columbine, is a perennial plant renowned for its distinctive, spurred flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer. These blossoms come in a variety of colors, including red, yellow, blue, purple, and white, often attracting hummingbirds and other pollinators. With delicate, fern-like foliage, columbines add a touch of elegance to gardens and are well-suited for woodland settings or shaded areas.
