Daily Photo
Lush unusual flowers shapes, self propigating and spring surprises. Columbines combine. Every year new types unfold. The varieties crossbreed for wildly differing flowers each year. This is my current favorite but many have yet to open and another might be spectacular. Here is an incredibly informative article about the 5 spurs of Columbines and how these long ‘tails” encourage speciation.

Wonderful picture. I love hot the bud (not just the flower) is also in focus.
Oh Wow – This is beautiful!
Congratulations! You were finally able to capture the elusive Columbine. I have tried for years but the photos were either out of focus or too far away to see the detail.
Wonderful photo!!!
Beautiful!
Absolutely gorgeous. Purple flowers…columbine, bearded iris, et al…are my favorites. Excellent photo.
