Bleeding Hearts (Lamprocapnos spectablis)

The original green leaved version of Lamprocapnos. I had Alba, but it didn't like it in the front garden and expired.

I cannot grow them. They do not like it here. I might try in the pot one day because they are lovely plants..

I also love these and their new name is slowly catching on, though some growers/catalogues are slow.

I have alba and they do well for me.

'Dicentra' trips off the tongue so much more easily...

It was too dry and not enough shade for the Alba I think. Also Dicentra formosa over ran it.
