Old-fashioned Bleeding Heart

Part Shade Perennial

After many years of building virus free stock, we are finally able to offer Dicentra spectabilis once more!

Old-fashioned Bleeding Hearts form large, bushy clumps of powdery-green foliage comprised of cut or lobed leaves on fleshy stems. In late spring, chains of puffy heart-shaped flowers with rose-pink petals and white tips dangle beneath the arching, leafless stems. After putting on this fantastic display, Old-Fashioned Bleeding Hearts usually go dormant until the following spring. Other bushy perennials, such as Hosta, Geranium, or Sedge, should be planted nearby to fill in the resulting gaps.
