Description
Delicate, pink, heart-shaped flowers hang in small, branched clusters above soft, fern-like, leaves at base.
The flowers are about 3/4" long. At the base, two small sepals that drop off; four petals, pale pink or rose - in two pairs: Outer two have a pouch at the base, forming the outline of a heart, with spreading tips, and two inner petals facing one another, with a wavy crest on the back, enclosing six stamens and one pistil.
The Western Bleeding Heart is common from southern British Columbia to central California.

Lovely light on the flower and stem. The background is perfect for the backlit flower. Well done.
