Helleborus x hybridus 'Double Ellen Red' - Oriental Hellebore

Helleborus 'Double Ellen Red' is a little stunner - the multi-layered petals are a pure red-purple with a lovely yellow centre - very rare and very beautiful.

The stunning, pendent or outward-facing, saucer-shaped reddish flowers appear from February to April above leathery, deep green leaves. This is a new lenten rose variety and the flower colour is extremely unusual as well as beautiful. The hazy, deep red-purple flowers look particularly good when planted with Spring flowering bulbs such as narcissi and hyacinth.

Like all Hellebores, it is a great ground cover plant for areas of dappled shade under deciduous trees and shrubs.

Supplied in approx. 1-1.5 litre containers as pictured with buds and flowers in season.
