Hi, I googled for the seeds and found a Montreal business that actually sells the plant - still haven't sourced seeds anywhere in Canada. You could try the vine forum and list that you are looking there too. Cheers Peggy Here is a link that might be useful: Bleeding Heart Vine Plant for sale Montreal

I realize that it is only an annual but I thought it would look really nice in a container. I would have to treat it as an annual but we all grow annuals in containers or in the garden. I just think its a really neat plant.

Try this - get a small laundrey basket at the dollar store. Plant your bleeding heart in that and then plant the whole thing in the ground. You can leave the rim above ground as a border or cover it completely. In late fall/early winter the plant loses most of it leaves and looks real woody. You can remover the entire thing from the ground and prune both the top and the roots. Replant in same place. Fertilize it when you see new growth in the spring. It should be in full bloom by late spring.

I'd be happy to share, are you patient? My vine is new so it could be a while, it's healthy but little - just planted 4 weeks ago and beginning to grip the base of nearby fence.

I haven't had any luck with these from seed, although I have one seed pot I haven't given up hope on yet (maybe my own fresh seed will make the difference next year). When I got the well-grown, well-rooted plant, I emailed the grower to thank him and tell him the plant had arrived in good condition. Also mentioned I hadn't been able to germinate d. scandens seed.

They replied they didn't have results from seed for this vine either, their plants are cutting grown.
