Glorious!! We saw H. 'Sunflare' for the first time when Ernie and Marietta asked us to send several plants to photograph. The yellow double flowers have a beautiful red margin on the edge of the flowers. I don't know how many we will sell, but I think we will plant many in our own garden! Most of the plants will bloom this year.
Helleborus Sun Flare has spectacular pale yellow to golden yellow petals with dramatic deepest pink to red picotee edges. This gorgeous hellebore strain comes from the Winter Jewels Series bred by Marietta O'Byrne, one of the best hellebore breeders in the world. Beautiful in their own right, white and light coloured hellebores are perfect companions to help show off the deep purple, red and black flowered plants against the dark spring soil. Deer resistant. Perennial Plant of the Year 2005.
