I need help identifying this plant.
The flowers are blue or white, plant is about 6 inches high. 
Leaf shape remind me of aquilegea. The blossoms are about 1/2 to 3/4 inch in size.
DH dug these up from his hunting camp in southwestern Ontario. In a forested area with moisture and sun.
The closest I have come to is broadleaf toothwort, though the leaf shape is not the same.
Anyone a wildflower expert?

wow I have no idea, but they sure are lovely. At first I was thinking, Irish Shamrock? Cause I have one that sort of looks like yours, but the leave are indeed different. It will be fun to find out if someone knows what it is!
Gosh no idea at all! They are lovely though!
Could they be hepatica?
