Luminous silver-blue-green toothed foliage undergirds mauve buds that open to creamy-green flowers blushed on the exteriors - most interestingly subtle. A low-maintenance evergreen perennial 2' x 2'. Minimum temperature: -10?F
A lovely compact hellebore with serrated, silver leaves held on pink stems. In early spring these are topped with loose clusters of flowers that are mauve-pink on the backs and creamy green inside. As with all stemmed hellebores plant in more sun than the hybridus types. Deer resistant.
Luminous, serrated silvery leaves create a glowing compact 14"x 14" mound of ever-silver foliage, perfect for brightening up a shady, wind protected spot in need of a pop of shimmery goodness. Beautiful blooms are blushed with rose on the exterior, while the interior is alabaster white with hints of green. Blooms Winter through early-Spring! Prefers loose, rich humusy soil. Super easy & low maintenance! Combine with Violas & Primula polyantha 'Victoriana Gold Lace' for a fun shady show of flowers Winter through Spring. Bait for snails.
