Helleborus HGC 'Ice n Roses'
Mid winter ruby red blossoms on a plant 1-2 feet tall and 1-2 feet wide. All Helleborus are very early spring bloomers, blooming even before Azaleas do.
They do best in filtered shade with winter protection from harsh winds. During mild winters the foliage is evergreen. Cool soil is the key to success with Lenten Rose. A great plant to naturalize in the woods.
