Dicentra Formosa - A native perennial with light green, delicately cut leaves 6-20" high, the Western Bleeding Heart is smaller,
dantier than the hybrid cultivars. Flower stems rise 6" above the leaves to display pendulous clusters of pale to deep pink flowers
from April to June, often again in the fall. Delightful for the woodland, shaded garden with fertile, humus rich soil in partial shade.
Provide reliable moisture. This is a favorite in combination with ferns, Wild Ginger, Twinflower, and Vancouveria or Sweet Woodruff.
