Hellebore Double Queen mix – 5 x 9cm £19.99
The Most Beautiful Winter-Flowering Plant – and so on trend too – Hellebore Double Queen mix. Large, Ruffled & Speckled Blooms in double flowered forms. Every one is totally unique because it’s come from seed! Adding delightful colour to your winter garden, these beautiful blooms, each of 2-3 diameter, are dainty to look at, but incredibly tough whatever the weather! Each collection includes a mix of 5 double flowered 2 year old plants; you will get a stunning mix of colours, many with speckles and darker edges to their petals. With flowers from February – April they are a must for every Spring garden! So easy to grow, they will slowly establish into small clumps, increasing in flower number year after year – it is not uncommon to have upwards of 50 flowers in 5 years. They thrive on shade, and lower light spots, yet can be grown well in pots provided they do not dry out in Summer.
