A single Bleeding Heart flower found at the Reader Rock Garden on 24 July 2013. Just realized that a previously posted photo of a single flower still had its little "rabbit ears" downwards, unlike this one. "Lamprocapnos spectabilis (bleeding heart) is a species of flowering plant in the poppy family Papaveraceae, native to Siberia, northern China, Korea and Japan. It is the sole species in the monotypic genus Lamprocapnos, but is still widely referenced in the UK under its old name Dicentra spectabilis (now listed as a synonym). It is valued in gardens and in floristry for its heart-shaped pink and white flowers, borne in spring." From Wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamprocapnos

I wonder what happened to this plant this year. It has completely vanished from my little garden.

This plant was growing in my garden until this year. Seems to have vanished. I'm not that keen on it, as the plant is very straggly, but the flowers are pretty, resembling tiny pink hearts with drops of blood at the bottom. Another name for this plant is Dutchman's Trousers. Native to Japan.
