Lamprocapnos spectabilis (formerly Dicentra 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. It is a popular ornamental plant for flower gardens in temperate climates, and is also used in floristry as a cut flower for Valentine's Day. It usually has red heart-shaped flowers with white tips which droop from arching flower stems in late spring and early summer. White-flowered forms are also cultivated.
Perhaps "Freezing Hearts" would be more accurate. There are a few that still look good but most of them have been frost bit.
I would have liked more of the flower to be in focus, but then I would have hurt the interesting bokeh from the tiny seasonal lights on the tree behind.

Lest anyone think me a total native-plants Nazi, I actually like these better than the woodland dicentras. And I think I'm going to like this lens, too.
Bleeding Hearts. The emo-est flower. Likes: listening to Linkin Park, Twilight, tight pants, expressing the angst of their misunderstood existance. Dislikes: symmetrical hairdo's, conformists, sunlight.
