Hellebores and various

11 comments


I haven’t written anything for a while and don’t tend to take many photos nowadays. But, I took the camera outside this morning and thought you may like to see a few of the photos. Hope you like them.

Some of the many hellebores I have growing.

Pansies, snowdrops and iris hanging by the patio

Erysimum that hasn’t stopped flowering since this time last year!

Lovely clump of snowdrops

Lovely photos, must get some more Hellebores. They are certainly a blessing this time of year.

Glad you like them. There are six more clumps still in bud that I didn't take photos of. I take after my dear mum I think. She loved them. Sadly she passed away the week before Christmas.

So sorry to hear about your mum. She would have been delighted I'm sure to see those beautiful Hellebores, they are lovely, a credit to your green fingers.

Hi, some lovely photo's, sorry to hear your sad news, Derek.

Thanks everyone for the lovely comments. I miss mum but I'm pretty philosophical. She had just had her 98th birthday so she'd had a good innings. I liken in to trees; the old leaves have to fall off to make way for the new ones. And I've got lovely memories of her working in her own garden which she loved.

i never knew about or even remember seeing hellebores, not once....until i brought my Christmas rose and the reason i brought the plant is because i wanted blooms in winter in my garden...then i got to see that this plant comes in different colour shades...so thats the reason i really fill hooked now and how could i resits looking through your blog at yours...obviously could not...
