Pink buds open to mid pink flowers that slowly deepen to green and deep pink tones. Large white stamens with yellow tips reflex backwards like big eyelashes at the centre of each flower. Foliage is a bluish-green with silvery veins. A pink hellebore that could give 'Pink Frost' a run for its money! Great in the garden or containers. Deer resistant.
