Aquilegia Nigricans Subsp. Subscaposa

Aquilegia nigricans subsp. subscaposa is a rare and elegant flowering plant native to the mountainous regions of western North America. This subspecies is distinguished by its dark purple petals and finely divided leaves that resemble ferns. It thrives in cool, moist environments and is often found in shaded woodlands and rocky slopes. Due to its limited distribution and habitat specificity, it is considered a vulnerable species. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect this unique botanical gem from further decline.
