I'm reposting this as I had no replies last time.
I'd be grateful for any advice please.

I always cut off the big hellebore leaves in winter, but the plants
are spreading and the leaves are bigger than ever after the wet, mild
winter.
I would like to cut off a lot now to make room to interplant. Any
opinions on how it will affect
next Spring's growth or shall I just give it a try?
I have such a small garden, a lot of hellebores, and plants with
nowhere to go!
