They are called Columbine and are also found at my favorite photo haunt, the Botanical Garden.

For some reason I was thinking this was a daffodil and I was happy to include Wordsworth's poem about them; then alas, I realized I was mistaken and took the poem out. Perhaps someone has written a cool poem about a lily. Or is it a lily? I've seen this flower a bazillion times and somehow, I can't name it today!
