Clerodendrum thomsoniae, commonly called bleeding heart vine, is an evergreen liana growing to 4m tall, native to tropical West Africa from Cameroon west to Senegal.
An unambiguous common name is bleeding glory-bower.
Names like glory-bower, bagflower or bleeding-heart vine are also often encountered but can refer to any of the roughly 400 species of the genus Clerodendrum.
The flowers are born in cymose inflorescences arising from the axils of the leaves. The leaves, in turn, are arranged opposite to each other and at right angles to the pairs above and below.
De Clerodendrum thomsoniae, ook bekend als de klimmende klerodendrum en kansenboom, is een sierlijke groenblijvende klimplant met donkergroene bladeren die contrasteren met de opvallende witte bloemen.
De bloemen hebben een karakteristieke, buisvormige vorm en groeien vanuit de bladoksels. De bladeren staan tegenover elkaar en loodrecht op de paren erboven en eronder.
De soort komt van nature voor in West-Afrika, meer bepaald in het gebied van Kameroen tot Senegal.

Found these dangling Bleeding Hearts in a long lost folder on an old hard drive.
Captured a few years ago with a Panasonic zs20 super zoom pocket camera.
Edited this weekend on the desktop in Photoshop and Viveza, then into Alien Skin's Exposure X for further editing in Black and White.
Dicentra, known as bleeding-hearts, is a genus of eight species of herbaceous plants with oddly shaped flowers and finely divided leaves, native to eastern Asia and North America.
Flowers have two tiny sepals and four petals. The flowers are bisymmetric: the two outer petals are spurred or pouched at the base and curved outwards or backwards at the tip, and the two inner ones with or without a crest at the tip. In Dicentra, all leaves are in a basal rosette, and flowers are on leafless stalks. In other genera with bisymmetric heart-shaped flowers (Lamprocapnos, Dactylicapnos, Ichtyoselmis, Ehrendorferia), leaves grow on stems as well as from the root. Each of the two compound stamens is composed of one median and two lateral half stamens fused together. The stamens and pistil are held between the inner petals.
Seeds with elaiosomes are borne in long capsules.
All parts are poisonous if ingested.

Picked up this plant at Home Depot and planted it in the backyard. I figured I'd have to wait until next year for some decent blooms, but got some right away. I think today's world can use a few more bleeding hearts.
I visited Reader Rock Gardens to discover that they had a few detours. I hope the next time I go all the work has been completed.
Thanks for your visits and comments! They are all greatly appreciated!
I have always liked these pretty little flowers .
They use to grow in the garden, but then they disappeared.........maybe I should replant them.
SD70 #2578 was part of the last round of locomotives ordered for Conrail in the late 90s. That Conrail blue is bleeding through the battle scars on the nose of this Spartan cab EMD as it's sits tied down on the industrial track in Newport PA on the head end of a loaded rail train.
This pub was a filming location from the two part London episodes of Death In Paradise.
DI Humphrey Goodman goes here to see Martha after she had left Saint Marie to work back in London. Humphrey decides to move back to London to start a life with her.
This bittersweet ending of his time on Death In Paradise eventually led to the spin off Beyond Paradise, which I have recently watched & enjoyed it a lot.

My bleeding hearts plant - or Dicentra - is putting on a good show again this April. Love these plants and the flowers they produce. The evening sun catches ours and lights up all the little hearts.
Listen to Leona Lewis doing her thang!
