White Diamond Fern-Leaf Bleeding Heart is a compact herbaceous perennial with deeply cut blue green leaves resembling ferns. Nodding white heart shaped flowers bloom on long leaning stems from late spring into fall. Flowers best in part shade in the south with rich, consistently moist, well-drained acidic soils. Unlike most Dicentra, White Diamonds thrives in full sun.
