theme: portray the name of a music band
-Metallica is an American heavy metal band. The band was formed in 1981 in Los Angeles.
-"Bleeding Me" is a song from their 1996 album, Load.
"Bleeding Me" is one of the few Metallica songs that contains a Hammond organ.
-The inspiration from the song appears to come from a poem by Lord Byron in which he states the following:
"The thorns which I have reap'd are of the tree
I planted; they have torn me, and I bleed.
I should have known what fruit would spring from such a seed."
Bleeding Hearts - thinking of putting these under the oak tree :))

The last two look like the petals are linked.
The Asian bleeding-heart grows to 120 cm (47 in) tall by 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 racemes of up to 20 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, going dormant in summer.[3]
“But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.” :)
-Kahlil Gibran
After the frost caught the first blooms, this young plant was lucky to get a second chance to bloom.
Amaranthus caudatus goes by many names including love lies bleeding, pendant amaranth, tassel flower, velvet flower, foxtail amaranth, and quelite. It always makes a lovely edition to our summer garden.
Many parts of the plant, including the leaves and seeds, are edible, and are frequently used as a source of food in some countries.
HSoS!
