Dicentra ‘Candy Hearts’
Fern-leaf Bleedingheart |
USDA Zone: 3-9 |
Plant number: 1.187.330
The various selections of Fern-leaf Bleedingheart are valued for their compact habit and long season of bloom. This variety forms a vigorous clump of powdery blue-green leaves, topped by clusters of delicate, dangling heart shaped flowers in a dusky rose-purple shade. Excellent for edging, and very useful for mixed containers and tubs. Removing faded flowers will promote lots of new buds to form. In cool-summer regions this may continue flowering into the autumn. USPP#14692: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
