Availability: Out of stock
Pack of Six oriental Hellebore hybrids. Lovely, highly sought plants, this is a great value way to start a collection. Colours may vary, this is a lucky dip mixture, all beautiful types and great for under planting shrubs or naturalising on wooded banks under tree or other areas with dappled shade.
The Helleborus orientalis really is a beautiful variety of hellebore with pretty flowers that can appear in a variety of shades, all with a lovely soft golden centre. Every petal appears in delicate shades of pink through to white or even crimson, with other shades in between often spotted or purple forms too - they bloom from February through April, and many of our plants already have buds and blooms coming!
The stunning, pendent or outward-facing, saucer-shaped flowers appear from February to April above leathery, deep green leaves. This is a wonderful lenten rose variety and the flower colour is extremely unusual in the winter garden, as well as beautiful. The 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.
The leathery, evergreen leaves that provide all year round interest can be cut back in Late Winter, to really show off the flowers to maximum effect.Â
Looks wonderful planted in a container, or as part of a border mixed in with ferns or Hostas. Grows best in a part shady spot and like all hellebores, prefers a heavy soil.
Top Quality bushy plants are supplied in approx. 9cm pots, these really are outstanding value for money.
Perfect for adding brightness and garden interest when little else is showing colour, plant these now to guarantee the beautiful flowers every winter each and every year in to the future.
