I am worried I planted my bleeding heart bulb upside down. How do I know which end is roots?

Yes point side up, but worry not , if you planted them upside-down they will still come up. It may take a longer time but nature is amazing.The part that is to root knows it is to root...it will. The part that is to emerge knows it is to emerge...it will. Nature has a way of making corrections.


Be patient ....your hearts will arrive with proper care. Perhaps you might want to invest in a gardening book there are many. Some that are geared just for bulbs. You can find tricks of the trade, and lots of important info....like fertizing...planting...prunning ...etc.


Happy gardening and God Bless

i have this plant. the girl above me is right. they also multiply alot.
Reply:Point up, flat spot down.





That being said, nature has a way of surviving. They'll all live. But the upside down ones will take longer to grow and bloom.
Reply:usually bulbs havea knobby little sunken place on them and thats from the stem that was there.so that side hgoes up,but ususally it wont matter,cause it can turn itself around.
Reply:The flat part of the bulb goes into the ground. The pointy side points up
