Bleeding Heart Leaves Are Turning Yellow

Question From: A. Hynes - Aurora, Colorado, United States
Q: What causes the leaves on a bleeding heart to turn yellow? It was only planted on Thursday of this week and seemed to be very healthy. Could the cause be overwatering? Thank you for any assistance you can give.

A: It could be overwatering or the plant may be going dormant. They hate the heat. Mark the spot where it's planted as it may well return in spring. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
