Double Hellebores from Seed

I love the creamy one with the pink edge, centre right. Not seen one like that before. I shall have to start letting mine seed and see what I get!

Really lovely, I have some nice ones grown from your seed.

I have to chuckle. Everyone is growing them from seed and I have tried twice and got absolutely no germination at all!

I sow seed immediately and leave outside, needs 1 or 2 periods of cold stratification.

Wonderful varieties you have pretty.

It's the first time flowering for these. I have some more doubles but I moved them last year and they are not in flower yet, still time hopefully.

They have rewarded you well let's hope the others will flower for you soon.

Siris you have some beautiful ones there.....well done.

They are beautiful Sue ,do you sow the seed straight onto the soil or in pots ?

Amy, the special ones into pots. I try to cut off the seed heads of the singles as they germinate so easily in situ, then I have to wait till they flower and remove the poor ones.

Thanks Sue ,I'll give it a go for next year ...

One of my Double whites has a pod with seeds already, but I only manages to retrieve 2 seeds, the rest fell onto the ground.

What a shame :o(
