Aquilegia coerulea
The petals are drawn out into long spurs between the sepals. The spurs contain nectar, which attracts butterflies and long tongued bees. Colorado columbine begins blooming in June at lower elevations through August in alpine areas.
It can be found growing in shaded montane and subalpine forests, as well as rocky alpine sites.
