Dicentra (Bleeding Heart)

Dicentra (dye-CENT-ruh), more commonly called Bleeding Heart, is a beloved perennial plant known for its unique, heart-shaped flowers that gracefully dangle from gently arching stems. Available primarily in shades of pink and white, Dicentra adds a touch of romantic elegance to shaded gardens, woodland settings, and borders. Its delicate, fern-like foliage complements the charming blossoms, creating a soft, airy effect in the landscape. Dicentra thrives in partial to full shade and prefers well-drained, humus-rich soil. It is a perfect choice for gardeners looking to add early-season interest to their shade gardens, as its enchanting blooms emerge in the spring and then bestows beautiful foliage throughout the remainder of the growing season. Though Bleeding Heart plants look dainty, they are actually quite hardy. Dicentra is deer-resistant and relatively low-maintenance, requiring minimal care once established.
