Nursery contributed plant descriptions

From Chris Hansen's Winter Thriller Series., a lovely double pure white Lenten Rose, boasting 3" blossoms in profusion once plants become established in your garden. As the flowers age later in the spring, the flower coloring changes to shades of pale green. Expect plants to grow slowly the first year, but within 2-3 years time they will grow to to 18" tall and over many years will form clumps up to 2' wide. Hellebore enjoy a neutral or slightly alkaline soil with good drainage. Their foliage remains attractive all year and the plants are deer resistant.

This vigorous strain produces an abundance of very large 3_", double pure white flowers. Mature plants can have over 50 flowers at once held up on strong stems above the foliage! The Winter Thrillers Series is bred by Chris Hansen who has spent more than 15 years perfecting his strains working to constantly improve flower colour and size, plant vigour and foliage quality.
