Asian Bleeding Heart (Lamprocapnos spectabilis)

Asian Bleeding Heart flowers found in the flower gardens in the Schumacher Lions Park located in the Town of Schumacher in the Township of Tisdale located in the City of Timmins in Northeastern Ontario Canada

 

The Asian bleeding-heart grows to 120 cm (47 in) tall and 45 cm (18 in) wide. It is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial with 3-lobed compound leaves on fleshy green to pink stems. The arching horizontal to 20 racemes of up pendent flowers are borne in spring and early summer. The outer petals are bright fuchsia-pink, while the inner ones are white. The flowers strikingly resemble the conventional heart shape, with a droplet beneath hence the common name.

 

The plant sometimes behaves as a spring ephemeral, becoming dormant in summer.
