There are two kinds of unrelated bleeding heart plants. One is an indoor houseplant called the bleeding heart vine. The other is an outdoor landscape flower called dicentra. Yellow leaves, on either plant, are caused by lack of nutrients, insufficient light or root rot.
Roots
-
Dicentra, the landscape bleeding heart, prefers moist soils. Plant dicentra in a well draining soil but provide mulch to help retain moisture. Bleeding heart vine, the indoor plant, may have yellow leaves due to root rot brought on by excessive watering and incorrect container size. If roots protrude from the bottom of the pot then repot the plant.
Light
-
Outdoor dicentra prefers partial shade, so plant in an area with indirect sunlight. Bleeding heart vines naturally climb to light because they thrive in bright sun. When light requirements are highly unsuitable, the leaves turn yellow and drop. Place bleeding heart vines in brightly lit areas.
Nutrients
-
Yellow leaves are brought on by insufficient nitrogen and both dicentra and bleeding heart vine can suffer. The remedy for both is the same. Fertilize with a 20-20-20 ratio, but when the plant is flowering, feed it with a 15-30-15 mix.
