***Description for this perennial available with future update!***>>>>>King of Hearts Fringed Bleeding Heart, is also known as Dicentra x 'King of Hearts'. It can handle a little Kansas drought in in moisture-retentive soils but not dry-shade. Foliage will flatten to the ground during drought then spring back up when moisture is available again. Generally however, in non-irrigated or poor soil areas, this plant will decline and allow weeds to intermix.
