Care Instructions
Dicentras are happy in any good garden soil that is fertile but not too heavy. Enrich the soil with plenty of leaf mould before planting and apply a mulch in autumn too. Prefers growing in some shade but will tolerate sun if the soil is kept moist. This long-lived perennial dies back after flowering for a period of summer dormancy. Not suitable for windy sites.
