 "Aquilegia" has been characterized as an X-type asteroid by Pan-STARRS photometric survey, which indicates that it is indeed a background asteroid rather than a member of the stony Flora family.In February 2004, a rotational lightcurve of "Aquilegia" was obtained from photometric observations by French amateur astronomer Laurent Bernasconi.Lightcurve analysis gave a well-defined rotation period of 5.792 hours with a high brightness variation of 0.75 magnitude (), indicative for a non-spherical shape.
