Bleeding Heart

The bleeding heart has started to blossom in my perennial border. This is a lovely delicate plant. This is an old variety and is quite hardy in our northern climate.

Bleeding hearts are one of my absolute favorites! I planted two last year and only one survived the winter. I didn't think the 2nd one survived either, but just this week I see a little start of it coming back!

Beautiful! And loads of little hearts on there! My mom loved this plant. I know I'll need to plant one in my new yard.

Oh, I love bleeding hearts too. They survive our winters fine (at least seem to), but our biggest problem is keeping them shaded enough.
