Beautiful Hellebore. In the Antipodes, ours are not due to flower until August/September.

Thanks so much. Yes, things happen differently “down under”, don’t they? Your blog photos are terrific, by the way.

Thanks, Alison. Not all varieties have this nice of a show, I’ve found, but it’s worth getting down on your knees to check!

Aren’t they? But you have to get “down and dirty” to really see them.

We must find a venue for your photos! Lovely hellebore and one of my favorites, as you know. P.

This particular hellebore is fairly nondescript, really, and it droops. But if you bend down and lift up the little blooms…well, then you get the pleasure of seeing its beauty up-close and personal. Your pink variety is not having a great display this spring because it keeps getting pummeled by this weather in its location. I need to move them (always room for more!)

Stunning image! My hellebore plants are still asleep since it still is winter here in NJ.

How kind! Well, maybe when it warms up a bit you can get down on your knees and take a peek inside. Who knows, you may have a nice show too!

Y’know? I am actually looking forward to that! My plants are actually up on a retaining wall so I don’t have to go so low to the ground. 🙂
