Dicentra formosa - Aurora

A charming dwarf fern‑leaf bleeding-heart that produces graceful sprays of creamy‑white, heart‑shaped flowers dangling from arching stems, from late spring into late summer. It forms a lush mound of finely divided gray‑green foliage that remains attractive even during blooming, and unlike classic bleeding hearts, typically continues flowering without summer dormancy in moist soil. Hardy and vigorous, it’s ideal for part‑shade borders, woodland gardens, or underplanting shrubs. With its deer- and rabbit-resistant habit and appeal to pollinators like hummingbirds and butterflies, it combines elegance with ecological value.

  • 1 growing root per pack, 2-3 eyes
  • Creamy-white heart-shaped flowers
  • Continuous bloom into summer
  • Deer & rabbit resistant
  • Attracts hummingbirds & butterflies
