Helleborus hybridus ‘Picotee Lady’ at Digging Dog Nursery

Helleborus

Christmas Rose/Lenten Rose

Stories about this genus are countless. In medieval times, it was considered a weapon against witches, madness and evil spirits. Hellebores deserve a place in every garden, not only because of their supposed power, but because they bloom for a long time, early in winter, when the weather is cool and many plants are still dormant. Most like moist, loamy soil with lime and leaf mold. We like them as ground covers for deciduous shrubs, conifers, or broad-leafed evergreens, and when possible plant them in an elevated spot to admire their flowers.

Another stellar Hellebore from the highly touted Lady series, ‘Picotee Lady’ affords ample feminine appeal with stylish uniquely etched blooms. The cup-shaped greenish white flowers model rosy-wine rims, pink or red veins, darker pink flip sides and a starburst of flaxen stamens. Thick lightly toothed deep green leaves craft a dark glistening foundation that’s easily grown and relished nearly all year, especially when planted next to Pulmonaria ‘Diana Clare’.

Blooms January–April

Size: 14" – 18" high x 18" wide.

Hardy to zone 5.
