Sorry for so many photos but it’s too lovely 🫢 #bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

It’s spectacular 💕💖💕

It's a beautiful shade of pink 💗💗💗

Such a beautiful colour...I may have to get one for myself🤭🤗 I'm sure I said that last year too🤣

I’ve just bought this Kerry .. 🌸🌸

You can never have too many photos. I absolutely love the delicate form and colour. The flowers remind me of a cross between hearts and tadpoles! 😆

Love the pink for a change….💗💗💗

So very pretty 💗 Love the pink shade. 💗

Beautiful and lovely photo Kez 💕💕💕

That is so pretty!

@sellmoon @heatherdirtyhands thank you ladies 😁 it really is a beautiful plant and has far more flowers than my other 2 varieties (deep pink & white) 💞

Absolute perfection 💗💗💗

@jeatacake thank you Jeff ☺️ it is such a beautiful plant. Flowers like crazy! 💕

@anges @hkyfvr @philstalder @ukjohnny @midnightgardener thank you all 😀 had it a few years now and it’s flowered like mad every spring. Never disappoints 💕

Always welcome. Love how they hang so perfectly. They look like they are posing for the photo. 💞💗💞

@hkyfvr they’re strong branches holding all those hearts up 😛

🥰😍

My favourite is back 🥰 #bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

💗💗💗

Fabulous! I ordered a bare root one of these the other day in the farmer Gracy sale.

Gorgeous. Love the pink ones. 💗💗

It's absolutely gorgeous 💕💕💕

I love the pink….💗

@pelly @hkyfvr @jeatacake @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom thanks my lovelies 😀 I say it every year but it is the perfect combination of the white & pink varieties 💗🤍 seems to flower for a longer period than those 2 too! Just adore it 💕

@DeborahBanks thanks Deborah 😃 that’s where I got this one from 😛 and it flowered in the first year! Should get a decent show from yours ☺️

Very welcome. I am looking for these for sure. They are perfect. 💞💕

@hkyfvr I hope you find one 🤞🏻 they seem to be becoming more widely available which is a good sign 😁

Such dainty pink hearts. So pretty. 🌸🌸

So lovely 💗💗💗💗

@pelly thanks Jane 😀

@hkyfvr thanks Diane 😃

@crabby58 thanks Thelma 😄

Very welcome Kerry 💗

So beautiful 💓💓💓

@jeatacake thanks Jeff 😁

Each one looks like a locket to hang around neck...

@bks it’s like a string of heart-shaped pearls 💕💞💕

#bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

Wow! Mine is only just beginning to peak out of the ground 🙄

@awomanonabike my darker pink one is only just starting too. This one was very eager 😂 not that I’m complaining 🤭

Wonderful 🤍💗 Can't even see the pot!

@jeatacake it’s huge this year 😂 really likes being in the shade of the greenhouse 💕

It's fabulous 🌸 Mine's just getting going. Like most things, lagging behind yours! 😏

@jeatacake that just means you get to have yours flowering once all mine are done 😉

There is that! It can be a problem at the end of the season though, such as with some of my cosmos plants which often don't flower before the first frosts arrive!

@jeatacake it seems like such a waste when they spend all summer growing but never make it to flower 😩 and that time of year there’s no spare greenhouse space for them either 😜

@ShelleySnyder thank you Shelley 😃

@hkyfvr thanks Diane 😄

@jeatacake thank you Jeff 😁

Seeds! #bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

I've got them on mine too, I've never noticed them in previous years 🤔

I must check mine as I've never know them set seed before either 😯

I've never seen the seed pods before I usually cut back after flowering for a second flush later on

@pelly seeing yours made me check mine 😛 nothing on 2 but this one is loaded 🤩

@jeatacake usually I cut them back but this one only just stopped flowering and these are on most branches. Never noticed them before. Be interested to know if you have some too 😛

@alan1111 same but this one flowered right up to last week. All the older branches are covered with seed pods 😋 strange goings on 😂

I've never noticed I just hack them back as soon as their past their best 😅

@alan1111 😂 usually I’d do the same but left them because of the heat. I can’t work outside in the temperatures we had last week 🥵 surprising how fast things move in some decent sunshine! 😜

It’s only the two white ones that have them, nothing on the pink 🤔

@pelly I was reading up on them and apparently they set seed readily. And it’s meant to be the best way to propagate since they don’t like being moved. Strange none of us have noticed seed pods before if they’re so typical 😕

I read the same. I've been out and checked mine again, I think, hope, the pink ones may have self seeded but there are still a few pods on the white ones. I've taken one off and am going to see if it will dry out indoors 👍

Still flowering away 💕 #bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

Lovely little pink numbers on the line this time 😉💗

@jeatacake 😂 the white ones were washed and dried so thought I’d have an outfit change 😉

Sill in flower mine are all but Finnished

@alan1111 my other 2 are but this one has gone crazy 😜 it’s overtaking the plants either side of it 🙈

They can get to a good size mine is about 1m high and close to 2m wide

@alan1111 you grow some big ol plants! Doubt mine will get near than being in pots 😅

Give them time 😙

@alan1111 I’m not known for my patience 🙈🤣

Lol it'll come

This is so pretty, it's gone on my wish list 💖💖💖

Love the colour 💗 Prefer this one to the common bleeding heart.

#bestofapril

Aww wow that colour is amazing Kerry.....💗💗💗💗

Gorgeous 💕💕💕

🌸🌸🌸

This is amazing, I would love to own this plant one day 😍

Pretty

@pelly it really is 💕 and grew so fast! Only planted it 7 weeks back and it’s as big as my old ones already! Another reason I’m obsessed with Farmer Gracy 😂

@ublaszko it’s so soft and delicate, perfect for Blaszko Gardens 😍

@brightcolours thank you Katie 😊

🥰 #bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

It’s perfect! 💗 #bestofapril

@dan5584 isn’t it pretty 💕 perfect mix of the bright pink & white ones. Just love it 😋

Fabulous 💗💗💗

So cute 💖

How sweet 💗💗💗

Pretty 💗

That's a pretty one

@jeatacake thanks Jeff 😀 love how subtle it is 💕

@juliesgarden thank you Julie 😃 it really is 💞

@sabbanrula thank you Rula 😄 my new favourite 🤭

@louiseperkin86 thanks Louise 😁 it’s a nice change from the bright pink ones 💓

#bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

Looking good 💗

@jeatacake thanks Jeff 😀 didn’t expect flowers this year but it’s liking like there will be a fair few! Another Farmer Gracy purchase 😉

This is new to me and I rather like it! I had a white one but the flowers easily disappeared among other plants. Keep meaning to replace it and this might do the job 👍

Another good endorsement 👍 You should be getting commission! 😉

@ublaszko it looks like it’s going to be a nice mix of the pink & white one. Could be ideal for your garden palette 😁

@jeatacake I’d happily take it in plant currency 😌

😍😍

Cataloging. #bleeding-heart #dicentra #lamprocapnos-spectabilis #bleeding-heart-cupid

Looking lush 💚 Mine's only just coming up.

@jeatacake this one is way behind the pink and white ones but only planted mid-March so not doing too bad. Excited for it to flower 😁 will always confuse me that we live not too far apart yet our plants run on completely different schedules 😜

Just checked on mine & it has a flower shoot on it, but it's not as bushy & sturdy looking as yours. When you see the temperatures on the TV weather map, it's usually a fair bit warmer where you are. We had a thunderstorm here & got a load of much needed rain last night. Any around your way?

@jeatacake gotta love a plant that isn’t shy at getting its backside in gear! 😉😂 seems all the stuff I got from Farmer Gracy has grown so well. Definitely one of the better places I’ve bought from. You lucky lot getting rain! Not a drop down here and it’s needed. Back to watering 3x a week already 😩

Definitely. Same with some people too! 😁 I've heard of others singing the praises of Farmer Gracie. I've been missing a trick, again, lol! We were lucky with the rain. It wasn't expected either. The ground got a good soaking, as did all plants in pots & tubs. The water butt & other rainwater collectors have about 2 day's+ worth in them now 😊

@jeatacake oh yes! 😂 they’re well worth a look Jeff. Just might spend a little too much 😂 sounds like a good drenching! Set for some here tomorrow which I hope we get 🙏🏻 need some for my drained dry water butt 😜

Sounds like I'll need my willpower to be on maximum setting! 😁 I hope you get that rain, especially if it's anything like what we had last night 🙏

@jeatacake or an extended stay on the naughty step 😉 fingers crossed - feels weird wishing for rain 😂

😄😄😄 Hope you did get some rain overnight 🤞

@jeatacake not a drop 😖 thunder set for this evening though 🤞🏻

🌧🌩🙏
