Reminds me of Aquilegia. Do you have any pics from other angles or of the bloom open?

Definitely has the look of Aquilegia. An open bloom will help in the id.

Columbine is the common name, Aquilegia is the latin name.
Might be Aquilegia vulgaris 'Dorothy Rose' http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/88858/
