Mid Season Update

Winter has certainly hit fairly hard for much of south east Australia over the past month or so.  Despite the cold the Hellebores are (slowly) coming into flower and looking good.

In the nursery we have started our exhaustive hand pollination of our stock plants in the hope of plenty of seed to sow later in the year.  And we have lots of newly germinated seedlings coming up from last years crop which we are about to pot into tubes ready for next year.

In the garden it is not too late to remove any old or messy foliage from your Hellebores and give them some fertiliser.  And make sure there is not too much mulch/fallen leaves smothering the plants as they appreciate a some space, light and air movement at this time of year.

Shop restock

We have just done a stocktake of what we have available in the Nursery and completed a restock of the Online Shop with a few new varieties and restocks of some that had been previously sold out.  For the keen collectors, we are currently offering the rare Chinese species Helleborus thibetanus, for the first time ever.  Now is the perfect time to plant Hellebores.

Open Sundays

The Nursery is open every Sunday now through till the end of September.  As a production Nursery we are not usually open, so this is a rare chance to see how we propagate and grow our Hellebores.  We now have quite a lot of flowering sized Hellebores available, so over the next 8 weeks or so will see the Hellebores at their peak.
