Posted by Megan on Wednesday, June 6, 2007 11:22 am ADTI would say yes, bleeding hearts can do well in shade. I have one under the afternoon shade of a lilac bush and it is doing great!

Posted by Joanna T on Wednesday, June 6, 2007 6:23 pm ADTJenna,Bleeding Hearts do like the shade,They also can tolerate some dappled sun,so plant them along side your Hostas it should look lovely.

Posted by Angela M on Thursday, June 14, 2007 3:05 pm ADTI have my bleeding heart and hosta both planted in the shade, and they are doing very well. I also have a hosta planted under a tree and it seems to love it!

Posted by Shawna H on Monday, June 25, 2007 5:35 pm ADTi have a mixed shade bed that gets morning early afternoon sun. I have hostas and bleeding heart and coral bell together.It does very well, almost too well it was the site of my old compost bins and I have to cut the bleeding hearts back there so big.
