Spring 2018
Gentiana
Creeping phlox
Dicentra formosa, bleeding heart
Alpine columbine
Dicentra spectabilis, bleeding heart
Ayssum, basket of gold
The last two photos were taken a week apart.
In a world full of flowers I mix them up sometimes. So if I do please let me know.
I believe the old fashion bleeding heart is Dicentra Formosa but could be wrong.

Wow! Plants are what you want them to be and if they piss you off maybe you shouldn't be around them. Now your ex can piss someone else off with bleeding hearts.
Beautiful!

Thank you. I like sharing flowers.
My bleeding heart grows under a small evergreen and is about thiirty years old. I am always so grateful to see the pretty pink and white flowers returning every year.

We have the Formosa bleeding heart in several places. It can grow anywhere. The white one spreads much slower. Every garden needs a bleeding heart or two.
