Bleeding-heart 'Burning Hearts'

The bleeding-heart 'Burning Hearts' is a Dicentra cultivar created by Akira Shiozaki in Japan. His version has darker pink blooms (likely inspiring the name) and differently-colored leaves (blue-grey) than the common variety. And unlike the common variety, the bleeding-heart 'Burning Hearts' will continue to bloom throughout the summer if it has enough water. It is versatile as it works well as a garden border, in garden beds and rock gardens.
