Why are my bleeding hearts dying?

Most are fine, but one of them has leaves turning yellow. They are all new. Too much water? Not enough?

Why are my bleeding hearts dying?
Foliage Declines In Summer Because Plant Goes Dormant


This normally happens after common bleeding hearts flower in areas with hot or dry summers. If you keep the soil evenly moist, this may not happen, but if the leaves do turn yellow or die down, cut them back to the ground. The plant is not dead, but it will not usually make an appearance again until the next spring.





Try this site, they seem to have good suggestions that may help.

Reply:You may be given them to much sun light and try given them a little more water than normal.
Reply:Don’t stop watering them, never plants need water to grow and absorb nutrients. Your problem may be Nitrogen or other nutrient deficiency, try a complete formula of fertilizer. If the plant is for indoors, you shouldn’t give them too much sun, try moving them to other spot.
