I started the plant from seed but cannot find any seeds in or around any of the spent blooms?? Love your site, have it on my favorites and visit quie a lot. Thanks
Seed capsules for dicentra are quite obvious - if you don't notice any, chances are that the plant didn't set seed for some reason. |
| Lana Gayle | May 20, 2012 | I have seeds from a Bleeding heart vine, How do I start a vine of my own? Thank you for any help.
Seeds need to be sown fresh. They will germinate at room temperature; if it was me, I'd start them indoors, to let them grow to a reasonable size before setting them outside. |
