Hellebore Plants

We’ve taken delivery of the first new seasons Hellebore plants over the last few weeks at our Landford centre. We especially love the Harvington strains which are bred on a specialist Nursery in Harvington, Worcester. Allthough Hellebores are considered bit of a connoisseurs plant they are real plantsmans favourites for good reason and are really very easy to grow if given a good moisture retentive soil and a bit of dappled shade gradually growing into large clumps of evergreen foliage. Cut the foliage back in the late winter to reveal the new buds pushing through that by February will have developed into the beautiful anemone shaped flowers that are so prized by gardeners and come in many shades and shapes. Doubles, speckled and picotees... Crisp whites, delicate yellows, as many shades of pink as you could imagine through to deepest - almost black - red.... Stunning when little else is in flower and especially good when partnered with snowdrops and miniature daffodils in freshly mulched soil.
