care of Bleeding Heart

Question

My Bleeding Heart plant has brown stalks/leaves and looks like it is dying out. There is new growth, but wondering if I can just cut down the brown stalks/leaves? I just purchased this place and never have had a Bleeding Heart plant. It sure can be lovely!! I would appreciate any help and suggestions that you can give me. Thank you so much for your time.

Answer 1

If it's newly planted, then it could be transplant shock (which normally rights itself) or in need of more water. You can remove any brown/dying growth. Also make sure the plant is receiving adequate water with good drainage.
