Dicentra

Just finding ways to ground a heart.
Inspired today by this beautiful dicentra in the garden. It grows so fast. It poked through the soil only two weeks ago and is over a foot tall now with scores of expanding hearts.
But there are still left overs from winter. I picked this amazing seed head on a walk:
And then a lonely heart waits:

  3. Those umbrella type seed pods are so wonderful. I usually leave my bronze fennel alone so that I can enjoy them through the winter. But then I have bronze fennel everywhere. :)
