Aquilegia oxysepala
Aquilegia oxysepala is a perennial flowering plant species in the genus Aquilegia (columbine) in the family Ranunculaceae. It is native to East Asia, with a range extending from southeastern Siberia to Japan. It produces purple and yellow flowers that bloom for three weeks in May. The plant has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years, while modern scientific research has determined that its extract has limited antioxidant qualities.
