'Harvington Lime' is very pretty, I'm guessing that's the one.
There's a double also. I do like the simple green hellebores though.
We had one that seems to have turned pink, I wonder if that happens
often?
Yes, that's the one. I don't usually like doubles because they get too
fussy but the colour of that redems it, imo. I'm told that Hellebores
are rather promiscuous, so hybridising occurs easily.
There's a good H. foetidus with bronzey foliage and reddish stems called
Harvington Pewter which I think is rather handsome, but all the
hellebores are looking wonderful at the moment.
They are. This seems to be a particularly good year.
