This "smallflower columbine" was photographed in a flower bed
in Fairbanks in early June. It was transplanted
from the wild. The University of Alaska Museum of the North has a specimen
found in Fairbanks at 8th Avenue and
Cushman Street. The genus Aquilegia is known to have toxic members,
although there is no record of brevistyla being
toxic.
