Dicentra x hybrid 'Sun Jewels™ Pink Diamonds' (PP32,380)
A classic in the perennial garden. Fern-Leaf Dicentra can tolerate more sun than traditional shade-loving Bleeding Hearts. A perfect choice for rock gardens, sunny borders, or patio containers. Does not produce seed allowing it to bloom longer into the summer. The fern-like, blue-green, mounded foliage lasts from spring to frost. Spring shipping only.
Fern-Leaf Dicentra is different from the other Bleeding Hearts as it is not a woodland plant. Its native habitat is from high Alpine elevations in cool climates. Unlike other Dicentra, it thrives in full sun to part shade and well-drained soil. It does not grow well in heavy clay soil and does not like to be waterlogged (wet feet). Give this one more sun than you would typically give other Dicentra and you will be rewarded with stronger growth and more flowers.
Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!
