Helleborus : Ashwood Garden Hybrids

That's a nice one. welcome to GoY Naoto

lovely photo, welcome to GoY

have you been to ashwood nurseries?

Thank you for your warm welcoming comments!

Yes, I went to Ashwood last week to participate in their hellebores tour and purchased this neon-shade hellebore there. It cost me an arm and a leg, but it is definitely worth it.

I also took the video of the tour. Try....

Lovely video, I am always happy to have a look about a garden centre. That bowl of floating hellebores at the end is very beautiful.

that is brilliantly beautiful!!! thank you for putting it on.
these nurseries are not so far from me but i havent done the tour ~ if you ever get the chance to see 'John's Garden' which is situated behind the nursery do go ~ its wonderful. There are photos on one of my blogs somewhere.

what is the music in your video ~ its lovely.

Cheers! Yes, the helleborus bowl was stunning! I wish I could have it at home!

I was planning to go and see his garden yesterday but due to the derailment accident in London Euston area and snow, I had to give it a miss this time. :-(

The tunes are - the first one is "Maybe I'm Amazed" by Paul McCartney (from the CD "Working Classical"), and the second one is "Ripples" by Genesis (from the CD "The Genesis Suite")

many thanks, i really enjoyed that music, i hadnt realised his garden was open yesterday ~ it snowed from midday on and we had about 4" by the evening so it might not have been so easy for you this end. sorry you didnt make it!!

Welcome to GoY ..
this is a pretty photo :o)

Cheers! Nice to see you, too!

Welcome to Goy Naoto. I love your photos, they are so pretty. Just what I want to see at this time of year! I love hellebores too! :)

Hi Karensusan6! Nice to meet you.
I like helleborus, too. I wish I had more space to plant more hellebours!

Welcome, love your hellebore its incredible.

Me too Naoto, but they do get quite big and sprawly with the leaves in the summer time. I always cut the leaves back about now so I can see the flowers in the spring.
