| Eastern Red Columbine (Aquilegia canadensis) |
I have a special place in my heart for columbines. First and foremost, I grew up in Colorado, and the state flower is the columbine (of course it's the blue columbine, not the red one, but to me a columbine is a columbine, though admittedly I do occasionally try to grow the blue ones down here). Secondly, I remember walking around my grandparents' property in the mountains looking for all the columbines (and wild strawberries). Man that brings back the memories...

I love them too, Katina. They were one of the first native plants that I had success with in my garden and so I have a special place in my heart for them. You've made a beautiful image.
Good times... That brings me back as well.
