noun
bleeding heart; Dicentra spectabilis
A flowering plant with heart-shaped pink and white flowers, native to East Asia. The name 華鬘草 comes from the resemblance of the flower to a 華鬘 (a Buddhist ornamental pendant).

The name 華鬘草 (けまんそう) is derived from 華鬘 (けまん), a Buddhist ornamental pendant, because the flower's shape resembles it, combined with 草 (そう, 'plant').
