Bleeding Heart … See Ya!

Once your bleeding heart begins to turn yellow and brown, it’s fine to cut it back right to the ground.
You can fill in the empty spot in your garden with hot-season annuals, which should be on sale by now at your garden center.
Just remember where you’ve got bleeding heart, so you don’t accidentally dig into the roots this fall when you’re planting bulbs.

Bill Cary grew up in Louisville, Ky. His gardening was limited to growing parsley and impatiens on the windowsill of Manhattan walkups until the mid-1990s when he bought a rundown old chicken farm on 8 acres in the Hudson Valley. Now he spends his weekends chasing deer, hacking away at invasive shrubs and vines and wondering why he doesn`t have more meadow and less lawn.
