Default Hellebore seedlings ...

Have inherited a couple of "Helleborus orientalis" in the garden ... notice
that there are a few growing from seed beneath the main plants ... any tips
on how I can best encourage these as I'd like to plant them elsewhere in my
garden ... should I put the seedlings into pots and grow them on till they
are bigger or move them to a new site as is ? Any advice appreciated.

Cheers,

Richard,
Aberdeenshire.

Shut your eyes for a year or two and they'll walk there by themselves.
Otherwise, just prepare the ground and transplant some when a spell of
wet weather is expected. (Or keep well watered and shaded until
established.)
