Lemme see… I forgot to include the Baboquivari Mountains along with the Huachuca Mountains as a place to find Aquilegia longissima. I’m thinking that will get my son-in-law Jared pretty excited as we have been talking about how the Baboquivaris must have a treasure trove of cool plants. Yup, looks like. The meaning of the genus name Aquilegia is taken from Robert Nold in his book Columbines from Timber Press. A must have for columbine and rock garden geeks. And no, you may not borrow mine. The photos are mine. That’s Aquilegia chrysantha stream side in the Chiricahua Mountains.
