At Gardeners Delight we where very excited to be exhibiting Dicentra Passion Hearts , shortlisted for RHS Chelsea Plant of the Year 2026, on our display at RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Exceptionally floriferous, 'Passion Hearts' is continuously in bloom from May to October, offering a long-lasting display of beauty throughout the growing season. Perfect to add a splash of vibrant color and intricate foliage to any perennial border or planter combination. This is an alpine-type hybrid and thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, making it an excellent choice for sunny spots rather than shaded areas. Plant in soil that does not sit wet for best results.
