Wow capt. thats really pretty. Mine is only up about an inch here so far. Though I've notice it spreads so I want to dig up a piece before it gets too big and move it to another part of my yard.

Wow, you lucky man! I spotted the small hearts about to start, but the big ones are a long way away from flowering here.

Mins is coming on quite well but isn't near flowering yet. I also have/had a white one but haven't seen any signs of growth from it this year - hope it's not died off. Thanks for the piccie to keep us all going until ours flower.

Lucky you. I can't wait to see mine pop out of the ground (no signs as of yet). I have a number of the everblooming bleeding hearts in my yard...just love 'em!

Had to cover it up. We have a freeze warning out for it the morning and it is in full bloom now. There are about 4 times more bloom on it now. Tomorrow I will take another pic of it.

I love the Bleeding heart plants...I noticed even though we have had frost, snow and cold weather mine has a few hearts on it too. The plant is real small and I was surprised to see the little hearts after what the weather has done here in Wisconsin. I think I have about 6 plants, some white. Very nice picture...thanks for sharing.

That's so beautiful. Nice and full. I've got one slated for my garden this year, but it's still to cold to put anything in the ground. Thanks for sharing yours.
