I garden in zone 6b. We have some pretty challenging weather sometimes. I don't claim to be an expert, so you will see my successes and my failures.
Although most of my videos are about gardening, I will occasionally post videos about nature, or other things that interest me.
I really appreciate feedback, so please say hi so I'll know you've dropped by.
I recently started a page on Facebook. It will include photos and some additional information that doesn't show up on RU-vid. / midwestgardener

Great seeing the start and ending of a plant, very helpful

@MidwestGardener 3 года назад

Glad it was helpful!

@staceyocallaghan2118 3 года назад

Thank you, its my first year of having this plant and I was worried I've done something wrong as the leaves were yellowing and dying! I'm a beginner when it comes to gardening so the tips help a lot!! 😊

@MidwestGardener 3 года назад

I'm glad that I could help. I think you will really enjoy seeing it come up early next year.

@mik_noko5034 5 лет назад

I have red and white bleeding heart. Love this flower.

@MidwestGardener 5 лет назад

Those two colors would look amazing grown closely together!

@TheGrumpyGardener 7 лет назад

I cut mine down to the ground every year and every year it comes back with a great display!!

I probably should, but laziness always gets me.

Such a BEAUTIFUL plant and the gorgeous pink blooms are so beautiful :-) I really love how you have filmed the plant over the different seasons of the year :-) thanks a million for sharing Jim and sending you an abundance of love and heaps of happiness from right across the Emerald Isle for a WONDERFUL Friday ahead XXXXX

Our bleeding heart season is between May and early July. I've heard people say it's very easy to grow them yet others say their bleeding hearts keep dying on them. Well, bleeding hearts don't like wet feet neither do they like dry soil. Not too much sun but they don't thrive in full shade. The secret is finding them a sweet spot. I had such a hard time growing them in the first three years. I kept moving them around because they were either dying or not thriving. Once I found them a sweet spot, they come up every year like clockwork. I hardly have to do anything with them other than giving them a little support when they get too tall.

@MidwestGardener 7 лет назад

Thanks for sharing your experience with them! I'm sure many people will find that information useful. I know I did :) That is true for many plants, you just have to find the right place for them and help them when needed. Ours seems to like the spot we have it in.

@laurieclarkson9180 6 лет назад

I'm in zone 7 and I'm guessing my bleeding heart season is May-early July too. I thought I somehow killed it last year when it died back in the middle of summer like that, so I'm glad to hear this is normal. Mine was placed in a "focal point" area of the yard, but I'd like to move it to a less noticeable area because it looks so bad when it dies back! Since you have moved your plant multiple times, when is the best time to move it? I'm guessing now since it has died back, rather than when it's in bloom????

I planted 2 bulbs this year that never sprouted, the company gave me a refund. I plan on trying again next year. They are so dainty looking... :-)... T

@MidwestGardener 7 лет назад

At least you got a refund. It takes them about a year to get established. After that, ours has done pretty well.

@marcelaimpellizzeri6616 3 года назад

Do you think they grow in south Florida? The temperatures in here are very hot, thank you for the video, they are so beautiful!

@MidwestGardener 3 года назад

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how they would do there. My guess is that they wouldn't do that well. They don't like the heat very much. Here they die back in the summer and then pop up again early the next spring.

@faridahosein8241 3 года назад

@nicolelatham979 2 года назад

I just planted the seeds in a pot and put them in the freezer to germinate. Is it too late? I read it needs to be in there for 6 weeks and then be out at a cold temperature of 65 degrees for 2 months.

@MidwestGardener 2 года назад

I've never tried growing them from seed, so I don't have any experience at that.

@irisbonifacio1692 Год назад

But if you buy bleeding heart seeds, do you have to store them in the freezer a few weeks before planting them or can you plant them right away?

@MidwestGardener Год назад

I've never grown them from seeds. If you plant outside during cold weather, you shouldn't have to stratify them. If you plant during warm weather, you probably should.

@Mike-vt6nc 6 лет назад

Are the flowers out long enough to attract hummingbirds?

@MidwestGardener 6 лет назад

Ours bloom a little too early for the hummingbirds.

@FunnieSnoopy 4 года назад

Hello. I have a small (4in pot) plant purchased from a nursery in February, and it died back in Late March. How do I care for it so it will come back next year? Do I keep it dry or water it?

@MidwestGardener 4 года назад

Well, from what you described, I would be worried that it didn't make it. Ours normally goes dormant during early to mid summer and after that, I don't even think about it till it pops up the next spring. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but I've never tried to keep one in a pot. Ours was on a drip irrigation system and got watered occasionally all summer even after it went dormant.

@FunnieSnoopy 4 года назад

@@MidwestGardener I see. I'll just leave it alone to see how it goes. Thank you!!

@arlusM Год назад

I have a few bleeding heart tubers/rhizomes (died back seedlings) in the pots. How often should I water them? I think I ended up rotting one of them due to overwatering :(

@MidwestGardener Год назад

Trying to find the sweet spot for watering tubers in pots can be tough. Too much water can lead to rotted tubers. I don't have any experience with growing them in pots, so I would be just guessing. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

@arlusM Год назад

@@MidwestGardener Thanks! Also, I am trying to grow them in a tropical country. The summers here are exceptionally hot (40 C +) and Monsoon is exceptionally humid. The plants will have 3-4 months window, to grow and bloom (provided they come back at all), of relatively mild weather.

@MidwestGardener Год назад

That makes it even harder. They don't like the heat very well.

@irisbonifacio1692 Год назад

But if I wanted to plant the seeds now that it's cold, could I plant them directly or should I still keep them in the fridge for six weeks first?

@MidwestGardener Год назад

It depends on what zone you are in, and how much freezing weather you have left. I'm in zone 6b, and I could probably plant them here outdoors without putting them in the fridge first.

I'm not sure where you are located, but it's normal for them to die back. It normally dies back during the heat of summer.

Sorry, but I've never tried growing them from seeds before. I'm pretty sure that the seeds would need to be cold stratified before they would germinate.

@abdulsamiearbanibalouch760 3 года назад

Sir, Can I grow it in hot tropical climate?

@MidwestGardener 3 года назад

I'm afraid not. This plant doesn't like the heat.

@abdulsamiearbanibalouch760 3 года назад

Sir, what if I grow it in Winter from mid of nov to mid April.. when temperature is about 7°C to maximum 30°C...?

@MidwestGardener 3 года назад

That might work. I would just try to make sure they have some shade in the afternoon. Here they do well until the weather gets really hot, then they die back until the next spring.
