Hello Bob, that's maybe Lythrum sp., perhaps Lythrum salicaria. It's found all over Europe and Asia. Where did you find it? Normally Lythrum blooms during summertime ... so maybe I'm wrong with the classification.
I'm pleased to see that you've got an ID from those in the know, Bob - I'm hopeless at flower ID! Beautiful images, and interesting that the flowers are so attractive to aphids. With my very best wishes - - - Richard
The flower is beautiful, but I don't know the name.
