Occasionally something different just shows up, either from genetic mutation or recombination, it will probably have many of the characteristics of the parent.

I put a bleeding heart in the shade under a mulberry tree in April or May. It was a luminous chartreuse green almost all summer. In the past month or so it has gradually turned yellow and now it is almost completely gone. It has all turned brown and died back except for a few very tiny leaves on one stem and that one looks like it's headed in the same direction. Is this normal? It is next to my huge elephant ears. It seems that as they got lusher, my bleeding heart got punier. Could it be the mulberry tree? I also planted a beautiful Siberian bugloss close by which thrived at first. Then quit blooming and then one day I went out and the entire plant was black and dead. All are in total shade. Can anyone help? Thanks.

It depends on how far advanced coming up your plant was. The plant should send up new shoots in a while. Replant for now. When I did something similar only a few shoots came up in July but by the next year it was fine. You might go ahead and post the picture.

I wouldn't expect much growth as it's just settling in. FW's suggestion is good, even to mulching it for a bit of protection against drying out before it establishes. You can never prevent the odd fly-in grasshopper, but they are a bit of a magnet for snails, even tiny ones can ruin a leaf, have a look around, some may have come along as eggs.
