Aquilegia vulgaris, commonly known as European columbine or granny's bonnet, is a perennial flowering plant native to Europe. It features distinctive bell-shaped flowers with spurred petals, typically in shades of blue, purple, pink, or white. Blooming in late spring to early summer, it thrives in partial shade and well-drained soil. The plant attracts pollinators like bees and hummingbirds but is toxic if ingested. It self-seeds easily and is valued for its ornamental appeal in gardens.
