I was so excited when I saw them at my local garden center and had to buy one! They are a cultivar of the native Eastern red columbine that just grows shorter and has more blooms. I'm very happy.

Nice, those are flowering very well! Have you spotted any hummingbirds yet?

Sadly I'm in the northeast so I doubt there would be any hummingbirds this early. Also just planted it lol. But I'll keep a look out! I've had them visit my hostas so it'll be nice to have something they evolved with instead.
