Hellebore - Lenten Rose

These flowering perennials are among the earliest to bloom in the spring garden in Utah.  Hellebores - or Lenten Rose - are also an excellent choice for a shade garden.  They are available in several colors and they have interesting foliage.  Plant them in clumps and patches under deciduous trees for a nice spring show.

  1. I have recently become obsessed with hellebores, and would love to cultivate them for my floral business. Nowhere can I find plants. Any suggestions? It seems as though now would be a good time to find them given their bloom time.
