Description:
I love Hellebores. They bring splashes of colour to the garden when not much else is happening and grow in parts of the garden that other plants struggle in. I love growing hellebores in pots to show them off!
Care:
Not a huge amount of care needed. I cut away the old leaves early in the year to allow space for the new leaves to sprout.
Current appearance: Small plant
