May 3: Three Hearts on the Line

The Bleeding Heart is blooming. I was afraid that I had wrecked this plant. I covered it when we had a freeze and the branches bent down with the weight of the covering. After a couple of weeks, the branches are finally beginning to lift up.

Just beautiful - not a flower I've seen often, but from your shot, I really like it.

I don't know this most unusual flower but it certainly makes a great photo!

So delicate...yet so hardy. Lovely image.

@milaniet Thanks. I don't see this flower around here much. Lots of people grew this plant when I lived about 3 hours south of here. I fell in love with this plant and knew I had to have one. When I moved here, I bought two plants. This is the one that lived.

@deu49097 Thanks. This plant looks delicate, but it is a lot hardier than I think it is.

@olivetreeann Thanks. I am glad that this plant survived the cold time. I once had a fern leaved bleeding heart. It was not hardy at all.

@tonygig @la_photographic Thanks to both of you. I have been taking pictures of this plant for a few weeks. Finally, I have this photo that I like. Tony, thank you for your fav.

@pyrrhula Thanks! I like the name "Heart with Tears" for this plant.
