Flowering Plant

Semiaquilegia ecalcarata, commonly called False Columbine, is a charming perennial native to open woodlands. It forms a mound of finely divided foliage and sends up slender stems of nodding, spurless bell-shaped flowers in soft purple, mauve, or dusky hues. Its natural elegance and tolerance of shade make it perfect for woodland gardens, shady borders, rockeries, and containers. Although sometimes short-lived, it readily self-seeds, providing recurrent seasonal color
