Helleborus


Helleborus

It seems like every week there are 2-3 new blossoms on this and there are still several unopened buds. This began blooming in December and probably won't be done until April or May.

That's a very pretty one, it seems to have an unusual centre?

It is a nice one.

The center and the entire flower look different than they did last year. I think it is from growing inside my sunroom where there is less light. Normally it's a bright room but this winter the sun only seems to come out once a month so it hasn't had a whole lot of light.

Doesn't seem to have done it any harm, there are loads of flowers and they are looking up which is a bonus!

I think this is the only variety I have where the flowers don't stare at the ground. Last year it was in the ground and the flowers were deep pink and kind of green when they were older. It flowered way before any of my other hellebores and stayed in flower from November to April or May. I think the variety is Ivory Prince.
