Dicentra - Bleeding Heart


Dicentra - Bleeding Heart

I didn't plant this - not sure where it's come from really...! But it comes up every year and is very pretty and most welcome!

This has always been one of my favorites. Even when not in bloom it's very attractive.

That's a pretty shade of pink. It's either Dicentra formosa or D. eximia, if you google, you'll get a better idea comparing the foliage.

I like Dicentra mainly because of the unusual shape of the flowers, I agree with you Bathgate, it is a very attractive little plant.
Thanks Scottish I'll try to find out which variety it is! :o)))

Thank you Bloomer! I agree the foliage is lovely - soft and delicate! I'm sure it has grown thicker this year... It must be due to all the wet weather we've had...;-D
