Wow, isn't that unusual!? Did you see Beechgrove tonight....they visited a garden near here, at Dunnichen and it was great, I must go next time it's open...there were a few things I'd never even heard of!

I managed to rescue mine after cutting into the long tap root, put it in a pot and then in My Plants, where a GOU member v kindly told me that climbing Dicentras are now called Dactylicapnos. How could you possibly remember a name like that!!!! Lol

Siris
yes it changed a few years ago but I am almost too old to change, can't pronounce it leave alone spell it.
Another good example of Botanists messing I grow a very tiny wild Cyclamen I grew up with the name Alpinum then all of a sudden it's name changed to Cyclamen Trochopteranthum the mind boggles .then a few years ago they changed it back to alpinum.I am waiting for them to change back to Dicentra LOL

Can't teach an old dog new tricks, that's me. I will probably call it pterodactyl, when I am having a senior moment. Lol
