Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Clear white double 2-2.5" flowers in late winter and early spring. Grows 18-24' tall, and clumps slowly expand to 2' or more.
We can ignore them, neglect them and even abuse them and our ever so heroic Hellebores are just unbreakable, returning year after year in late Winter. Flawless ‘Wedding Bells’ is one of the heaviest bloomers – I counted 41 simultaneous blooms on a single plant last season. Pure white, pendulous, 3” blooms are very double with a green eye. Deer/rabbit resistant. Compost yearly for optimum vigorosity. 20”x20”.
