I love Helleborus and planted a few in the shade on the north side of the house last year. This year they are blooming like crazy. These two pictures are of Pink Frost. The color is luscious.
I found another spectacular variety at Sunny Farms that I couldn't resist. This is a sad picture of Penny's Pink with a deep purply-pink flower. The variegated leaves on this one are outstanding. I would love to fill up the north beds with different varieties of Helleborus and ferns.
