http://hohkuu.notlong.com/ 31 May 2008 Bleeding Heart (Dicentra spectabilis) This plant needs some shade. Growth is severely inhibited in full sun. There is not much shade in my garden. The plant grows on the shady side of the fence and puts flowering arms through the fence.
Spreading is not too apparent, and it is easy to control. My problems was getting a shady enough location for it to thrive. In full sun it was anemic.
Durgan is correct. Shade is essential. Fortunately the north side of our home gets only partial sun.
