I'm sad to see the end of this little beauty for this year. As the summer progresses, the glorious golden foliage turns dark green. Soo glad to see it return this year so strongly. I"ll try to feed it up well over the summer.
"The site selected is a ridge seventy or eighty feet high projecting like a wedge into a dry timbered bottom....A fine stream of water flows at its base....We designated [the site] Camp Scott, and would respectfully suggest that the post...be named in honor of the gallant General Commanding in Chief."
B.D. Moore, Captain, 1st Dragoons, April 14, 1842, describing his selection of the site that would become Fort Scott, and the suggestion to name it to honor General Winfield Scott.
Fort Scott's history reflects the development of the United States in the mid-1800s.
From 1842 to 1873, Fort Scott played a significant part in events that were shaping a young America into a transcontinental power. Fort Scott National Historic Site was established in 1978 to commemorate Fort Scott's role in four distinct eras of American history.
Frontier Fort
In 1842 the U.S. Army established Fort Scott as a link in a chain of forts that stretched from Minnesota to Louisiana. The forts were intended to guard the "Permanent Indian Frontier." From 1842 until 1853 soldiers from Fort Scott patrolled the plains, policed overland trails, and contacted Indian tribes. In 1846 the army sent troops from Fort Scott to the Mexican War.
Bleeding Kansas
Eastern Kansas witnessed violent clashes between pro- and anti-slavery forces in the late 1850s. Fort Scott (no longer a fort but now a town) was not spared. Frequent turmoil prompted the army's periodic return to restore order. Resolution of the slavery issue finally came when Kansas entered the Union as a free state on January 29, 1861.
Civil War
With the onset of the Civil War, the Union Army selected the Fort Scott area for a supply base and training ground. Extensive Union facilities here supported operations in Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, and the Indian Territory (Oklahoma).
Expanding Railroads
Railroads opened the West; four lines reached the Pacific by 1885. Many other lines connected through towns like Fort Scott, but not without dispute. The army operated the "Post of Southeast Kansas" in Fort Scott from 1869 to 1873 to protect the railroads. Soldiers guarded construction workers from attack by landholders trying to stop the rails from crossing their property.

This photo of open prairie dropping down to a timber-lined drainage might resemble the scene viewed here by Captain Moore in 1842, when he chose the site for Fort Scott. The photo was taken at Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve, about 100 miles west of here.
Bleeding heart plant in the garden. I can't believe how nice the weather has been for the past week.. I was busy up until Friday and now I've got a horrible cold so I can only really make it into the garden to enjoy it
I thought this is a variety of bleeding heart ... perhaps not !! .. and it is NOT :-))
This is "Fuchsia - Red and Maroon" .. thanks to Sylvia.
To speak the language of a bleeding heart…
Soft tears falling,
Gentle touches soothing
As if…
As if there were still hope...

So glad i saw this today .. i didnt hold hope i would see this group again as last year it was rather sparse.
When i took the original plant from our childhood home it looked
like its roots were punky probable cause, every time i visited my home helping out dad, i looked at mums plant.
Every year it looked like shit every year getting worse not to mention obvious dog piss covering the leaf's so when i removed the plant from the ground
it fell apart.
This was a small clump i really didn't think would do well, so i gave it a chance admittingly the portion of plant still struggles here.
* personal note not tried by me yet : Bleeding heart prefers humus-rich, moist soil, with lots of organic matter, but it is not too particular about soil pH. It prefers a slightly acidic soil, but will do fine in neutral soils. Spread a 2- to 3-inch layer of organic matter, such as compost or well-rotted manure, over the existing soil.

Today is the Memorial Service for my dear friend Karen Sykes, who lost her life while hiking on Mt. Rainier doing research for an article she was writing. Karen was a famed guidebook writer, blogger, hiker, photographer and lover of the wilderness. I miss her.

A beautiful vine native to West Africa, it climbs by twining around itself instead of using tendrils or feet. It will die back to the ground with light freezes and grows back every spring.
