Dicentra ‘Valentine’ (Bleeding Heart) is a show-stopping shade perennial with deep red, heart-shaped flowers accented by crisp white centers, gracefully suspended from rich burgundy stems. Blooming in spring to early summer, this compact dicentra adds romantic charm to woodland gardens, shade borders, and containers. Easy to grow in part shade to full shade, it prefers consistently moist, well-drained soil. Loved for its unique form and long bloom season, Dicentra ‘Valentine’ pairs beautifully with hostas and ferns, making it a standout choice for elegant, low-light garden spaces.

Planting & Care

Dicentra Planting Guide

  • Plant bare root dicentra in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked, while plants are still dormant. Soak roots in water for 3–6 hours before planting.
  • Choose partial to dappled shade—morning sun with afternoon shade is ideal. Plant in moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil and avoid soggy or low-lying areas.
  • Dig a wide hole and set the crown about 2–5 cm (1″) below soil level, spreading roots gently. Space plants 30–90 cm (12–36″) apart and water well after planting.
  • Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulch to retain moisture and keep roots cool during warm weather.
  • Foliage may naturally die back after flowering—this is normal. Cut back once yellowed and allow surrounding plants to fill in the space.
