Description
The fernlike foliage grayish-blue in color provides a beautiful textural quality. Heart shaped blossoms dangle from 12-15″ flower scapes throughout summer, with the heaviest bloom in early summer. Graceful specimen plant suitable for the shaded border, a woodland garden or a wildflower garden.
Plants tolerate a range of exposures from full sun to shade, but are happiest in a partially shaded site with well drained soil that is rich in organic matter. Dicentra eximia will not tolerate wet soils in winter or dry soils in summer. It does not go dormant and die to the ground in summer as does Dicentra spectabilis (Common Bleeding Heart).
