Dicentra spectabilis 'Alba' (syn. Lamprocapnos spectabilis 'Alba') – White Bleeding Heart
A beloved cottage garden classic since the 1800s, 'Alba' is the pure white form of the iconic Bleeding Heart — elegant, graceful, and utterly charming. Arching stems carry rows of perfectly heart-shaped pendant flowers above lush, ferny foliage in spring and early summer, attracting hummingbirds and delighting gardeners. Summer dormant, it pairs beautifully with hostas and ferns that fill in as it fades. Deer resistant and long-lived in the right conditions.
