    I tend to agree with Cajunbelle. Could you take a foto from the side (lateral)? That ought to confirm it. I would expect to see some longish "horns" on the back side of the flower.

    Only one things confuses me though--and that is the flower bud that I see on the background of your foto. It seems more slender that what I am used to seeing.

    Anyway--nice foto.

    How about a Aquilegia hybrida 'Songbird' ?
