30 Mar 2019 • #hellebore and #daffodils What’s not to love? Have a wonderful weekend all!

Well I for one love eeeet! X x x

Goodie! 😃 @clipperty

Absolutely nothing, they are a gorgeous combo. Have a great one too 🙋🙋

Thanks Jane 😃 @pelly

they look so pretty together!

Nuffink! Gorgeous combo, especially with the wall as a backdrop! 😉

I thought so too. Not that it was planned that way 😉🙄 @malada

Well spotted 🤓 @rachelbrooks

Fabulous colour combination.

Thanks Joan 😃 @joannie.a

14 Jan 18 • This one is a little less shy than the picotee but is still hiding #hellebore

😯💓💜💓

It's a real beauty!💘😍

I love this one - may be because it's got double chocolate in the name though. 😁

Thanks Shelley 😊 @ShelleySnyder

It does help doesn’t it?! 😉😂 @lilybee

That's just gorgeous 😍😍

It’s a pretty one isn’t it. There are snowdrops around it too but I couldn’t get a picture that showed the flower and the snowdrops 🤷♀️ @pelly

Another gorgeous one! 💗💜

This is a really fab one Michelle. Just wish it would lift its head a little 🙄 @mich

It’s a beautiful one Jacqueline..I know it’s so frustrating when they face down 🤷♀️

23 March 2018 • There’s something slightly freaky about this photo... #helleboretriphid

Lol! Super freak! It's screaming at you and the daffs are all bowing down or cowering... IDK!?

Why are your harvington double chocolates looking up and bright and my HD whites are looking straight at the ground. I wonder if location has something to do with it.

😂😂 They are behind a wall to the south, so get very little direct light but I know it does depend on variety. @columbiariver

Love those flowers x x

Rather disturbing, sleep well Jacqueline 😂😂

😂😂 Hmm? Not sure they’ll be sweet dreams 🤔😉 @pelly

I was just hoping. I'm not happy with the drooping.

Most of them are shy (aka droopy) 😂Makes them more alluring?! 🤔😉@columbiariver

Ah...alluring... Well that makes them a little better Jacqueline. I appreciate that xoxo

😂 Glad to have helped 😘 @columbiariver

Triffids!!!

15 March 2018 • Another favourite #hellebore Also a bit shy initially but soon perks up 🖤💜🖤

Absolutely luscious! 💜🖤💜

It’s finally lifting its head too 😊@rachelbrooks

Wow! Beautiful!!

I’m looking forward to this one bulking up as I’d love to have it dotted around the garden @gjones

I wish they weren’t so shy ☺️
Beautiful colour , have just brought 10 of these to be delivered end of may can not wait !

Stunning Jacqueline @awomanonabike what a Fabulous colour 😍😘

They’re less shy now it’s milder. I’d have hidden in that cold @rachelbrooks

10?! That’s just greedy 😉😂😂 (but they’ll look wonderful) @lynneleopard

It is a real stunner Suzie 🖤💛🖤@jadojado29

Gorgeous....

23 February 2018 • It looks so shocked to have finally opened...

Oooh thats luxurious😍

Lovely colour!

Isn't she a beauty 😍😍

Love this one! Why isn't it hanging it's head like mine does? Is that a variety trait you think?

It is a fabulous dark chocolate colour Denise @Denise16 @gjones

It’s been worth the wait Jane @pelly

I think it probably is Laura, though this one looks positively startled 😮 😂 @columbiariver

Gorgeous thing!

Think it’s seen the weather forecast Jacqueline, truly beautiful though ..,,these Harvington doubles are amazing plants 💜💜💜

Haha! I think you’re right. Though even stranger it’s facing a wall. Maybe it’s leaning back to get some sun? I know that feeling 😎 @icedance

Maybe I know that feeling too, though ☀️ is in short supply right now , bless it did make me giggle 🤭

Yay! It's opening time! #hellebore

Oh hellllooo 💜💜💜 luscious! 👌🏼

Isn't it?! This is the one that has a few snowdrops nearby but I'm going to transplant some more under it 😊 @rachelbrooks @Jasonsparkes1 @jaynehynesburton

Great idea the purple and white will look great together 😁

Ah! That'll be a beautiful combination 💜

I hope so. It's in a rather dark little corner behind a wall so should brighten it up @jaynehynesburton @rachelbrooks

Oh I love this one Jacqueline. I was hoping to get another today but there weren't any. That's why I got the Heuchera. (Well that's my excuse anyway). @awomanonabike 😄😄

Another beautiful bloom 🤗

It's a little beauty isn't it? There will be other opportunities I'm sure Jane 😊😊@pelly @debs69

Almost there. You can do it! #hellebore #chocolate #winterblooms

Ooh that looks luscious! 👌🏼💜

Love the colour Jacqueline. 💜💜💜

It's a fabulous one isn't it? I'm going to put some snowdrops underneath, so should look even better in a few years... @rachelbrooks @linfoster @pelly

Ooh yeah! That'll look lovely 👌🏼

Lovely colour!
A definite favourite. Who am I kidding? It’s like having a favourite child. I love them all 🖤💞 #hellebore #helleboreappreciationsociety 💞
Good enough to eat Jacqueline
Thanks Lin 😊 @linfoster
😂 Wouldn’t it be great if it smelled of chocolate too 😍 @jendren
That's just beautiful Jacqueline 😍😍😍
Thanks Jane. Still not big enough to split but hopefully it will be next year as #youcanthavetoomanyhellebores 😉😂 @pelly
It's a graceful as well 😍😍
It is isn’t it and not too down-hearted 😉 @ublaszko
Have you ever tried cross pollinating them Jacqueline, I want to try it when they are dry enough 🤔
I haven’t no. Though they seem quite good at doing it themselves. I often have rogue ones turning up in the garden, though they are usually dark purple... @pelly
Gorgeous
Thank you Sharon 😊 @sharonhayden
