I am desperate for a cutting or seeds of red or white Bleeding heart (Dicentra
spectabilis) or any other colours of the same variety :) , can anyone help me out, I have tons of veg/flower seeds to swap.
Thank you :)
I can help with this, some red bleeding heart cuttings I have for the plant sale are too small to sell so I could send one of those, they only need bringing on a bit, pm your address :)

Im Jealous at the size of your bleeding heart, it looks beautiful :) :) :)
Maybe when TeeGee reads this thread,or Saddad,or TonyBloke.
we could be a little nearer on the cuttings. side.
its only 2 years old out of the skip at netto.
Just found some info:
divide in October or take 3" root cuttings after flowering is over or young shoots soon after spring growth.
I have both red and white so I'll give it a go and let you know the outcome!
It's all a learning curve ::)
