Helleborus, known commonly as Hellebore, have large, evergreen leaves and produce heaps of beautifully coloured flowers in greens, white, pink, mauve, and purple. Helleborus x hybridus is ideal to grow beneath trees in shady borders. Their flowers appear over winter, which makes them a firm favourite for cottage gardens.

Your Helleborus x hybridus will be happiest if grown in partial shade, and moist yet well-drained soil. You’ll want to add an organic-rich fertilizer into the soil when you plant them. They do like some moisture, but they’ll rot if you leave them sitting in water for too long. Once they have established themselves, they can handle soil that is a bit drier. Similar to other hellebores, Helleborus x hybridus do not do well if they are moved, so don’t divide them. If you grow them under the right conditions, they will self-seed and you'll get some replacements!

These plants sometimes irritate the skin and cause sore tummies if ingested.
