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.

Keeping with the theme of juvenile snowflakes, this one had just begun to grow its branches before was sent out of the clouds. Even though the branches are tiny, there’s a lot to discover here! view large!
This snowflake also harbours three-fold symmetry, albeit much less obvious than yesterday’s snowflake. The best place to see it is in the central bubbles; notice how every other “trapezoid” has roughly the same pattern? This even-odd symmetry is quite common, you’d be surprised how often you find it when you go looking!
Most of the surface details of this snowflake are on the opposite side of the crystal. They can be seen through the ice (ice is transparent) with a little less detail. I enjoy this look better of certain snowflakes, revealing stronger lines around the outside edges and allowing internal features to become more prominent. While nature creates these beauties, the photographer has a lot of control for how to present them to the world!
Snowflakes are all about lighting and angles. If I can photograph the snowflake on an angle where the light from the ring flash partially reflects back off the surface of the crystal into the lens (like glare), the surface lights up. Multiple surfaces make certain parts of the snowflake brighter, which is most often caused by bubbles in the ice. The brighter central area? It’s just ice like the other parts, but because the bubble creates multiple layers of ice, there are now multiple reflective surfaces and more light coming back to the camera.
This is also true along the branches. A very bright feature in most snowflakes, one or two running lines through the center of the branch reflect a ton of light. If the image is severely under-exposed, these regions reveal solid rainbows of colour. At normal exposures, you can still see the bleeding of colour away from their bright white centers. These bright areas could be caused by ridges above the surface of the ice (in this case, on the opposite side) that can evoke the prism effect. Alternative they could be bubbles in the ice, but something would need to be special about them to be so much brighter than other bubbles.
Photography is the melding of art and physics, and snowflake photography is a great example of that. If you want to know all the photographic (artistic) techniques, as well as all the physics of snowflakes, you need to own a copy of Sky Crystals: skycrystals.ca/book/ - you won’t be disappointed, it’ll make winter much more tolerable!
If you enjoy this series of images, your eyes might light up when you see “The Snowflake” print – consisting of over 400 snowflakes put together over 5 years with 2500 hours of work… all into a single image: skycrystals.ca/poster/ - do me a favour and take a look!

Listen to Leona Lewis doing her thang!
I have to admit, i bloody love this song. Perhaps I am gay after all. I lived in Hackney for a while (where shes from), why on earth didn't i meet her down the local rubberdub on a Friday night then???
Anycheese, tenuous link from this shot to Bleeding Love is...errr... pass.
More dark rocks and wellie adventures yippeeee!!
I havent been out with my camera at all recently. Which is crap. This weekend should be good though. So next week i'll be back an bad...
Will catch up then, sorry to be so transient. Wet kisses all round!
Just beginning to bud. I had bought bulbs that claimed to be bleeding hearts, but after planting them, they turned out to be these. Must have been a labeling mistake. Either way, they grew into mammoths.
I've finally made my way through all the pictures I took this Spring. I didn't do so much for this Summer. However, I will be flying out to Jackson Hole this Saturday and will be spending the week in the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. (Super excited) So, I'll probably be putting up the few Summer pics I have once we return and then hopefully be posting a lot of awesome shots from the trip.
We have a single Bleeding Heart plant in our backyard and for a few brief days every year, the hearts pour out. And then, they are gone and I become heart-broken. Less than an inch (~2cm) in length, they are small fragile little wonders.
The common bleeding heart (Lamprocapnos spectabilis; formerly Dicentra spectabilis) got its name for its pillow-like, heart-shaped flower that dangles like a single pendulous drop. Bleeding hearts are shade-loving woodland plants that bloom in the cool of spring. Although they stay in bloom for several weeks, the plants often become ephemeral, disappearing for the rest of the summer if exposed to too much sun or heat. The roots stay alive, and the plant will regrow in fall or or the following spring.

Another shot from the garden... these flowers are tiny but they look so beautiful!
The description of this plant in Wikipedia is pretty interesting: Lamprocapnos spectabilis also known as old-fashioned bleeding-heart, Venus's car, Lady in a bath, Dutchman's trousers, or Lyre-flower is a rhizomatous perennial plant native to eastern Asia from Siberia south to Japan.
Wishing you all great weekend!!
one of the hardest songs i'm singing at the moment... well, from bridge to ending makes me wanna quit my job right away, lol!
TGIF Everyone! =)
I will be gone for a week. I will miss you all. See you next week! HUGS!

As most of you know., I have not been around much.
Simply put.....I have a bleeding heart.
The love of my life......is very ill....I cant even (nor do I want to say anything more). I put all my energy in to him......and us.
Thank you for your support and kindness in this very difficult time......xoxoxo
