Scientific Name
Clerodendrum thomsoniae
Light
The Red and White Bleeding Heart Clerodendrum plant unfurls its abundant blossoms most prolifically when bathed in bright light. Optimal results are achieved when the plant is positioned in a south-facing window for indoor cultivation. For outdoor enthusiasts residing in USDA growing zones 9-11, the bleeding heart vine can be cultivated in a partially sunny location without additional protection. In cooler climates, the plant can relish the outdoors during summer, with a prudent shift indoors before the arrival of the first frost.
Water
As avid drinkers, these vines are insatiable when it comes to moisture. To ensure their health during the active growing season, it’s crucial never to let them experience drought. Providing a generous inch of water per week is the key to sustaining their well-being. A fully matured Clerodendrum thomsoniae vine can gulp down up to 3 gallons of water weekly. In homes with drier conditions, occasional misting becomes a nurturing practice. However, during the winter months, a reduced watering frequency of about twice a month is ample to keep the bleeding heart vine flourishing.
Hardiness Zones
The clerodendrum bleeding heart vine plant is rated for Zones 10 to 11.
Pet Friendliness
Not safe. Bleeding heart vine plants are toxic to pets.
Bleeding Heart Vine FAQ
How to Care for a Bleeding Heart Plant?
Caring for a Red and White Bleeding Heart Clerodendrum involves providing bright light, particularly in a south-facing window for indoor cultivation. In zones 9-11, it thrives outdoors in partial sunlight without protection. Regular watering, ensuring at least an inch per week during the active growing season, is essential. Misting in dry conditions and reducing watering to about twice a month in winter helps maintain its health.
Where to Plant Bleeding Heart?
For indoor cultivation, place the bleeding heart plant in a south-facing window to receive optimal bright light. Outdoor planting is suitable in partially sunny areas for those in USDA zones 9-11. In cooler climates, it can enjoy the outdoors during summer, transitioning indoors before the first frost to protect it from cold temperatures.
Do Hummingbirds Like Bleeding Heart Plants?
Yes, bleeding heart plants, including the Red and White Clerodendrum variety, can attract hummingbirds. The vibrant and intricate flowers of the bleeding heart are known to be appealing to hummingbirds, making these plants a delightful addition to a garden that welcomes these charming birds.
Do Rabbits Eat Bleeding Heart Plants?
Fortunately, rabbits typically avoid consuming bleeding heart plants. Bleeding hearts contain compounds that are unappealing to many animals, making them a relatively rabbit-resistant choice for gardeners concerned about these furry nibblers.
