Dicentra Spectabilis - Bleeding Hearts
- Formerly known as Dicentra spectablilis, bleeding heart, Lamprocapnos spectabilis, is a Chinese plant bearing pink-red, heart-shaped flowers with white tips, which hang from arching flower stems in late spring to early summer
- Easy to grow, it looks fabulous planted in groups towards the front of a shady border or as part of a cottage garden scheme
- As long as the ground is kept moist, it will thrive in full sun or partial shade. It is one of the earliest perennials into flower, but the foliage does start to die back after flowering, so it is best mixed amongst summer flowers, which can then maintain interest in the border
- Flowering Height: 120cm - Supplied as budding bare roots
