I have worked with A.D.R. Bulbs for almost 5 years now, and my company has sourced bulbs with them for longer than that. Communication is great - from ordering, to deliveries, to follow-ups on final product. I love the quality of the product as well as the service. We plant nearly 100,000 bulbs and A.D.R. keeps the whole process easy for us!

Dicentra spectabilis, or bleeding heart, is a shade-loving perennial known for its arching stems adorned with pendulous, heart-shaped pink flowers with white tips. Blooming in late spring to early summer, it thrives in part shade and moist, well-drained soil. Though it tends to go dormant in midsummer, its delicate foliage pairs well with hostas and ferns to maintain visual interest. Deer-resistant and easy to grow, it is a staple in woodland gardens and shaded borders.

Location: Prefers partial to full shade. Ideal for woodland gardens, shaded borders, or under deciduous trees.
Soil: Moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5–7.0). Amend with compost to improve texture and fertility.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially during active growth. Avoid waterlogged conditions to prevent root rot.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–9. Most species go dormant in midsummer, especially in hot climates.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Avoid overfeeding.
Pruning: Remove spent flower stalks and yellowing foliage. Allow the plant to go dormant naturally.
Propagation: Divide clumps in early spring or fall every 3 to 5 years. Some species also self-seed.
