Talk:Dicentra spectabilis 'Goldheart'

Is it a species or a variety? Is it originally from Asia or England? Gazpacho 03:13, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

This is a variety of Dicentra spectabilis. It is interesting to note that Hadspen House in England; which developed the variety, has been around since the 17th century. Also of note is that Hummingbirds love this flower, and therefore are a great pollination vector in addition to bees. :Siuwed 16:57, 15 July 2005 (UTC) It is a variety. The Dicentra spectablis is originally from Korea, Siberia and China but the actual variety of Goldheart was developed in England at Hadspen House by Nori and Sandra Pope by combining the work of Eric Smith, formerly of Hadspent House, with their own.

It is a cultivar, not a variety. As such it is a very insignificant item - I'll move the page to the species name (absurd to have a page about a cultivar without anything on the species it is derived from!) and expand the description to cover the species, with its cultivars as a paragraph "Cultivation and uses" at the end - MPF 23:21, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
