Thank you Simbad!! Yes, that's an aquilegia. I bought it 2 or 3 years ago and it was a tiny little thing in a pot. The label said "dwarf"!! Now I'm confused to see it grew so big!! What do they mean by "dwarf"??? I'm not complaining here :o)

Thanks Sheilar!! It's from my parents' garden :)

Ooo that would be great Tommymoo, I sprinkled a few aquilegia in the wood last autumn and noticed some seedlings today, yaaay :-))

Great news!!
I did the same last year and some seedlings came up, but they disappeared altogether. It was a dry summer, that's why, I guess. Hope your babies will grow on!
