I like pointy petals, especially on doubles.

That's what I liked about it too Siris :-)
That would have been nice Homebird :-), we're only 20-25 minutes away too and go every year, we were going Monday but the weather was glorious Friday morning , the snowdrops in the woodland were stunning again. I didn't think that mass planting of Hellebore's was there last year!, on the slope near the little stream? It looked amazing and I stood there looking for quite a while. We had lunch in the marquee after, if the steak and Stilton pie specials on when you go I'd recommend it it was delicious, we'll have to remember to meet up next year :-)
I love the doubles Dawn and have just sent for some more from Hayloft for delivery April/May £18 plus delivery for 12 different varieties ,not all doubles but all lovely, most of the Double Ellen collection I bought from them last year are flowering really pleased with them.
It's well worth a visit Michaella not only for the snowdrops walk but the beautiful gardens :-)

There were so many Amy I kept picking them up then seeing one I liked better lol, some lovely witch hazel too, next year when we've cleared a bit more space in the wood, still a few very dead trees to chop, I'll have one of those too ;-),

Wow! You have a really nice collection of these. Too bad I'm in the "iffy" zone for growing these.

Hodsock sounds idyllic. The Hayloft deal sounds excellent ?

Thankyou Wylie :-) that's a shame you could have some fun hybridising these !!
It is lovely Dawn, yes I've had some very nice plants from Hayloft, those Hellebore's would look good in your wood too! ;-)
