Dicentra spectabilis

Charming rose-pink, heart shaped flowers dangle enticingly from elegant arching stems, giving this plant its common name of Bleeding Heart. This beautiful spring flowering perennial is one of the earliest to bloom each year, often continuing into early summer. The finely-cut foliage forms attractive clumps that increase year after year, at a slow but steady rate. This graceful hardy perennial enjoys a reliably moist soil, making it ideal for damp woodland areas as well as cottage garden borders. Dicentra spectabilis holds an RHS AGM for its superb garden performance and makes a worthy addition to any Spring garden. Height: 120cm (48). Spread: 45cm (18). Eliminate the wait for your plants to mature with our XXL Bare Root Plant range. Planting these XXL clumps offers numerous advantages, particularly for achieving a quicker, more impactful and vibrant display, especially with varieties like Agapanthus, Geraniums or Peonies. These larger clumps, of established plants, provide immediate visual impact by having a well-developed robust root system and multiple green buds, all of which are individual plants which will spring to life once you plant them and work together to provide you with a stunning display from the first year of planting. They are also a great way to overcome the chance of losing younger plants to drought conditions as they are more mature and therefore drought-tolerant once planted.
