Dicentra 'Gold Heart' Bleeding Heart
Dicentra 'Gold Heart' is a dazzling bleeding heart variety with golden, fern-like foliage that glows even in the deepest shade. Growing 18 to 24 inches tall, this elegant plant blooms in mid to late spring, gracing the garden with arching sprays of heart-shaped, rosy-pink and white flowers. These blooms are not only captivating in the garden but also make charming additions to fresh-cut arrangements.
A cultivar of Lamprocapnos spectabilis, also known as bleeding heart, 'Gold Heart' is a cold-hardy perennial for Zones 3-9. It's a natural fit for woodland gardens and works beautifully in containers or as a filler plant in spring borders. As its foliage dies back in summer, pair it with hostas, ferns, or other shade-loving plants to maintain year-round interest.
'Gold Heart' thrives in partially to fully shaded areas with rich, moist, well-draining soil. Morning sun with afternoon shade provides the best conditions for vibrant growth. Avoid heavy clay soils, and for a fresh look, trim the plant back to about 6 inches after flowering to promote foliage renewal.
Plant 'Gold Heart' Bleeding Heart roots in spring, spacing them 24 to 36 inches apart and planting them 1½ to 2 inches deep.
