Only two
The Puya Alpestris or "Sapphire Tower" and
Dicentra Spectabilis "Bleeding Heart"The white variety, not the pink or red or crimson ones.
I been wanting a garden for so long and these caught my eye. I wanna know a reputable suggestion preferably from experience. Most people just look up the name online, I'm looking for something more.
Does anybody know a great place where i could buy these beautiful flower/plants?
If you are starting a garden, there are a lot of other plants that will give you a lot better results that the bromeliad you mentioned. It is not recommended as a landscape variety. I don't think that any bromeliad is a good choice for home gardening unless in a pot. the variety you mentioned is very small. Bromeliad connection, in austin texas might be able to help you.
Bleeding heart is another story however.
I love them for the foliage and the cool flowers.
Walmart actually had the white ones in the spring last year. They are sold as a dormant rootstock. mine did great. Remember though that bleeding hearts may go dormant when the temperatures get really hot especially if they are not getting quite enough water.
Rethink the bromeliad........the flowers are really insignificant, no matter what they tell you
Reply:Have you looked at the website for "Wayside Gardens" not only to they have a great selection there is a guaranty on there plants.
Reply:I dont know about sapphire tower but the bleeding heart can be found at www.michiganbulb.com.... Keep in mind their plants are very small when you get them either bare root or potted in about 2w X 3d pots but they get great reviews and gurantee their plants, if they die they will replace them for free. I ordered a bunch of plants from them in Nov. and am excited to see how they do this spring
Reply:spring hill nusery is a pretty good place online for bleeding heats. has a ton of colors including white.
