Helleborus niger 'HGC Jacob'

These flowers survived 5-6 icings and still were the first hellebores to bloom in the garden in 2011.
After aging a little the blooms turned slightly pink.
Hellebore "Meg's Garden' not the real name it was massive in the spring of 2010 with over 50 blooms. Between moving it and the drought of 2010 it has reduced down a good bit.

Hellebore kate 01
These came from Meg's mother's garden via Kate. They were a house warming gift when we had our house warming party after we finished the bi remodel. This plant seems the most varied of the three plants from Kate. In fact these might be a root division from one really big plant.
