Each flower has an inner petal protruding from the bottom which is reminiscent of a drop of blood and gives flower the name “bleeding heart”. The foliage is blue green, deeply cut and fernlike. Ivory Hearts is known for its extended bloom time and its compact shape. With adequate moisture it will remain attractive throughout the summer and with cooler temperatures it may rebloom.
