Also known as Venus's car, bleeding heart, Dutchman's trousers,
or lyre flower, is a perennial herbaceous plant native to
eastern Asia from Siberia south to Japan. This species of
bleeding heart can grow to 24"-36" tall and has ternately
compound leaves (leaflets that come in threes). The flowers
are pendulous, shaped much like hearts, produced in a raceme
bearing 3-15 individual flowers, each one 1-2" long, with pink
