Great under trees!
Reviewed By:  Jennifer (Santa Rosa, CA)
I just purchased these this year and they started blooming five days after planting them! They are still going strong as we roll into May. I have mine planted under a redwood tree and they are doing great! Great shade plant.

Beautiful shade flowers
Reviewed By:  Chris (Brookeville, Maryland)
Bloomed the first year although plant was somewhat small. This year there are 10 or more shoots per plant. I have several older plants that bloom for months in nearly full shade.

Luv a Bleeding Heart
Reviewed By:  Vonda (Lansing, Michigan)
I purchase these 2 years ago. Last year was my first year of blooms and I loved them. It would be nice if they lasted longer, but for Spring, they were a good choice & I will be buying more of them!
