Description / Dicentra 'Alba'
Hummingbirds flock to its blooms, and you will wish you had a much larger stand of plants when you see the spring display this little perennial is prepared to deliver!
The blooms emerge before the leaves do, which really helps them stand out. Reminiscent of white blooms in their puffed-out appearance and tropically bright colors, they are profuse and surprisingly long-lasting, held in almost horizontal "clotheslines" along slender stems. So graceful and how the blooms arise on leafless stems really make them stand out! These perennials do best in shady parts of the garden and will brighten up any border or bed with their delicate blooms. Also use them in a container or basket to show off these bell like flowers on your porch or deck. Cut a few branches for the house, and let the rest light up the spring perennial border!
