Elegant, nostalgic, and a true sign of spring in Canadian gardens, Bleeding Heart (Dicentra) brings romantic charm and delicate beauty to shaded and woodland spaces. With graceful arching stems and heart-shaped flowers that dangle like ornaments, this classic perennial offers timeless appeal across a range of beautiful cultivars.
This assorted mix includes three stunning varieties:
Common Bleeding Heart (Dicentra spectabilis): The beloved original, with rosy-pink heart-shaped blooms and fresh green foliage. A long-standing favorite in traditional shade gardens.
White Bleeding Heart (Dicentra spectabilis ‘Alba’): A luminous twist on the classic, offering elegant pure-white flowers that glow in lower light settings.
Valentine (Dicentra spectabilis ‘Valentine’): A modern cultivar with bold, deep red blooms and striking dark bronze foliage—perfect for adding dramatic contrast and colour early in the season.
