I guess they don't grow out here; I've never seen them.

Indigenous to NC, don’t see why they wouldn’t grow there in Cali
There is a Pacific Dicentra

I may go out and get a pic of mine ..

I love those so much! I had some long ago, in a galaxy far away.

Haven't had a yard in years, but would definitely plant some of this if I did.

My Mother always had a Bleeding Heart plant in her flower gardens in Montana.
