Dicentra ‘Amore Titanium’
Absolutely one of the most pure, true white flowers we’ve seen in ages. The floral display of this Dicentra is stunning against the soft blue-green foliage. Exceptional vigor and easy culture make this new Bleeding Heart a garden essential. AMORE™ ‘Titanium’ arose as a spontaneous mutation of the popular AMORE™ ‘Pink’ and it’s a knockout. As with all the AMORE™’s, they are very heat resistant and flower for many months, spring through summer. Grow AMORE™ ‘Titanium’ in the sun, or for an elegant woodlander, in the shade.
