These are the most adaptable and easiest to grow of all Hellebores.  Tough, drought tolerant once established and very long lived.  Helleborus x hybridus is the botanically correct name for what used to be called ‘Helleborus orientalis’.   Our varieties are just as tough as the old fashioned ones that would have been found in your Grandmother’s garden, but with better flowers.  If you have never grown a Hellebore, start with a few of these.

The Helleborus x hybridus selections listed in this section can vary a little in stature but typically reach about 45cm tall when in flower. When mature they will have a spread of around 60cm.  Their foliage is evergreen and the main flowering period is from July to September, depending on climate and season.  We suggest planting them 40 to 50cm apart.  These are one year old seedlings that you can expect to flower in Winter next year.
