Dicentra Spectabilis, Bleeding Heart, Bare Roots x 3 The Great British Bulb Company

Description

Dicentra is an elegant, easy care perennial for shady gardens. More commonly known as bleeding heart, it is named for its heart-shaped blossoms that dangle from slender, arching stems. Delicate, fernlike foliage creates a perfect backdrop for the flowers. Dicentra grows best in soil that is rich in organic matter. Before planting, you can improve the soil by adding compost or leaf mold. There’s no need to add fertilizer. Dicentra are actually quite sensitive to fertilizers so it’s best to let them draw nutrients directly from the soil. Do not plant dicentra in soggy soil or in soil that is extremely dry.
