Columbine
The columbine is blooming at Purdue Horticulture Gardens.
Aquilegia canadensis is our columbine native to Indiana. It's not terribly common, but a real treat when you do find it in the wild. A beautiful plant especially in a natural setting amongst the ferns and rocks and waterfalls of Shades State Park.

Aquilegia caerulea is native to the Rocky Mountain area.
