Common name fernleaf bleeding heart Family fumariaceae Life cycle perennial Flowers rose (spring-summer) Size 1' Light part shade Cultural notes ordinary garden soil (not too dry) Pretty cut foliage in low-growing mounds, with typical bleeding heart flowers over a long season of bloom. The flowers aren't as in-your-face pink as those of Dicentra spectabilis, but their more demure coloration is fine by me.

This plant used to grow in our garden, but it slipped away...
