Aquilegia sp.
Vibrant, pink flowers with five sepals, petals, and stamens. The leaves are compound. The fruit is formed at the end of the pistils. Underneath the flowers are spurs, which contain nectar.
In a rural, wooded area
The genus name comes from the Latin word for eagle (aquila) because of the shape of the flower petals, which resemble an eagle's claw.
