Dutchman's Breeches


I love the common names of flowers. I'm sure there are a variety of regional names but I can see the upside down Dutchman's pants (ala Dutch Boy Paints) on a line that were seen by pioneers when looking at this flower. A related flower has the name squirrel corn, bleeding hearts also have a similar shape.

Technical: This flower is one of those tough to photograph ephemerals because of its constant motion and a relatively deep depth of field needed to show them well.
