"Valentine" Bleeding Heart in bloom.
Shade loving perennial.
Deep red stems with gorgeous red dancing hearts and 3 feet green foliage.
Grows nicely in woodland gardens. Likes moist soil, but tolerates some dryness.
Spreads readily with added nutrients.

I use locally made compost, filled with llama, chicken, horse and cow manure along with natural forest products. Aged only for a season And sold by the 1/2 to 1 cubic yard. Good Stuff! and I need more this fall for the garden.

Post photos of your Valentine Dicentra Bleeding Hearts or any other Dicentra plants.
