6" Hellebore (Multiple Colours)

Helleborus are long-lived, evergreen perennials native to central and southern Europe, where they grow in poor soils in mountainous regions. These plants are very tough, need little care once established and are hardy from zones 4-9. 

Planted in the right spot, they are a beautiful addition to your garden. Helleborus are deer resistant, and all parts of the plant are poisonous, so take care to keep children and pets away.

CARE: 

Light: Helleborus prefer morning sun and afternoon shade, but they can tolerate some dappled sunlight in the afternoon.

Soil: They can grow in a range of soil textures, including loamy, sandy or clay soils. However, they generally prefer a loamy soil that provides good drainage with a neutral to slightly acidic pH of 6.0 to 7.5.

When to Plant: Plant your helleborus in the spring, being mindful of late spring frost. If you need to wait until the danger of frost has passed, your plants can be kept in a cool environment, such as a garage or basement, for several weeks.
