Just had a look at mine. They are also showing so I have covered them
with a sprinkling of soil and after that they will just have to brave
the weather. I may dig up and part the odd clump.

Live in The Midlands.

Regards,
Emrys Davies.

Your bleeding hearts "know" perfectly well what they are doing by
starting to shoot at this time of year. Don't worry about them,
don't try to coddle or protect them.

Hi Phil and Diane,
My Bleeding Hearts (Dicentra spectabilis) are showing now. I live in S.E.
London and garden an heavy London Clay. I have never protected mine, and
I've had no problems. They seem to be fully hardy.

I live in South East Yorks and I have never protected mine. They seem to be quite hardy, even those
years we have had severe frost, it hasn't killed them and we've always had flowers.
