Strange flower, pics attached?

Posted earlier about a weird flower... The flower is about three inches across, and three inches from front to back. The area where it is growing is very shady in the morning but receives full afternoon sun after about two o'clock. The soil where it is is probably not well-drained, as it is in between my cement driveway and my cement porch. The stalk that this flower grew on is about twelve inches tall.





Here's a link to pictures...

Can anyone identify this flower? It's in Southeastern United States.

It's a columbine!


Lovely one, too. very hardy, they reseed and spread like wildfire.
Reply:this is a columbine very hardy even here in Montana a zone 4(Park county by yellowstone national park) these are wonderful spring blooming plants they do self seed very freely but they come in such a wonderful variety of colors plus there are single bloomers and double bloomers and I do not think they are fussy about where they are planted-great perennial flower !
Reply:Here's your columbine. There are numerous colours and varieties.

Reply:Aquliga, or granny's bonnet. Many types and they cross pollen ate. Very easy to grow, self seeds. The double ones are beautiful.
Reply:That flower, my dear is a Columbine. They come in many colours.
Reply:I would guess that it's a type of lily, but I don't know. It's really pretty, though! Did it come up from a bulb?
