Hi all,
I planted one of these 'Taylors Dicentra Spectabilis 'Bleeding Heart'
Bulbs - Specialist Bulbs - Dobbies.com' (http://tinyurl.com/3l8he5e)
about 2 years ago now and every year i never get any flowers just the
green leaves?! Can anyone suggest the problem here? Its planted in our
border in semi-shade. Thanks Ali


how large is the plant when it
has the most leaves on it? do you
know what the leaves are supposed to
look like? do you trim the plant at
all? if so, when? what are the
soil conditions? have you used
fertilizer? what kind? how much?
how often? how much sunlight do you
mean by semi-shade? any more
information you can add?
