Leaves look like Hellebore, but the flower looks like a Clematis !
Is it climbing through other plants?

Hi Jenny,

No. it stands on its own. The petals look and feel like crepe paper.

Hi Pam,
Yes, I went to Aberglasney Gardens on the weekend and couldnt believe
how beautiful this plant is - it wasnt just the colour, it was the
*feel* of it - like crepe paper!!
I emailed Aberglasney yesterday and they confirmed it was a hellebore
but a "rather special double form" - they have promised that as soon as
new stock comes in, I can purchase from their shop!

Anyway... it's hats off to JennyC and you for an excellent positive
ID!!!

Thank you )

LOL - thats the thing, I dont!!! I saw that hybrid at Aberglasney
Gardens but couldnt id it, so came here to ask! Aberglasney have
said, as soon as they get new stock of the plant in, they will let me
know so I can purchase from their on site shop.

So..... have any of you been known to swap cuttings, etc.. ?

Yes :~))

These get together were known as URG meets and people who turn up with car
loads of cuttings, seeds, bulbs etc to swap.

Unfortunately due to various reasons several of the 'old crowd' no longer
take much of an active part in URG.
Maybe someone wants to restart the meets :~))
