Looking good Jac nice to see the one you moved is in bud, I moved mine a couple of weeks ago when we bought the new Birdtable and Birdbath, they don t look too happy at the moment but hope they will recover!

16 Feb, 2010
Are these your first Hellebores, Jac? You know I love them! :-))
16 Feb, 2010
The Label that came with this Hellebore has Faded SeaB but im sure its ment 2 be Red! But if it is Dusky Pink il still be Very Happy :) Glad u yours is looking ok PP :)Mine get little bits on 2 Holly :( Iv 3 Different Hellebores now Spritz with the 1 u sent me last yr :) Yours r real beautys compared to mine :)
16 Feb, 2010
My hellebores don`t look too good at the moment but they usually improve as the weeks go by I find. Love the colours of yours. :o)
16 Feb, 2010
Thanx Lab:) They do tend to take a while to get going dont they ! Iv got another 1 which is a Deep Purple Colour i think? But its planted in a Different Border cos its very small @ mo & i wanted to grow it on until bigger :)

The ones in flower at GCs are very expensive, Jac - but if someone wanted to give you a special pressy then now is the time to look so you know what the flowers will be like!
16 Feb, 2010
Thanx 4 the Info Spritz :) I look forward to seeing more pics of your own Hellebores :)

They're all budding up nicely, so it won't be long, Jac. The one I planted 4 years ago that hasn't ever flowered has some buds coming! YAY!!! That's because I gave it a severe talking-to last year, so it knew it was on a final warning. LOL. I've also got three I grew from babies - all with buds, and they're supposed to be doubles - I can't wait!
16 Feb, 2010
O Wow! im so plezd to hear its got Buds this Yr Spritz :) & 3 New Double Babies to how brill :) Be sure to post pics wont u? :)
16 Feb, 2010
Oh yes - sure will! I'm really pleased, as you can guess. I'm hoping that ome of the 'babies' might be a white double. :-))))
16 Feb, 2010
Mmmmmmmm a White Double :) il keep my fingers crossed 4 u Spritz :)
16 Feb, 2010
Thanks, Jac. :-))
16 Feb, 2010
They're lovely Jacque. I hope you will show them after they have opened :o)
16 Feb, 2010
Yw Spritz :D Glad u like them Hywel il photo them as soon as their Open :)
16 Feb, 2010
I hadn't realised how lovely they are until today at the RHS plant and design show. The best price there seemed to be 2 for £10, but as I've never looked at prices before I don't know if that's good or not. Will certainly get some soon though. Lovely pics Jacque.
16 Feb, 2010
Hi Ginella £5 each sounds ok!! Iv seen some in GC 4 £6.99!!! i look forward to seeing which 1s u get :)
16 Feb, 2010
They are lovely Jacque , and much more forward than mine :o)
16 Feb, 2010
Glad u like them Amy :) Its quite Sheltered where their Planted maybe thats why their earlier? :)
16 Feb, 2010
Yes, I meant to say before...mine that looks the same as this isn't red, it is dark pink as suggested by Seaburn girl! ...nicer I think than the dark red ones which are beautiful but hard to see
16 Feb, 2010
will look great jacque and after looking at members hellebore realised they can grow quite big to, so will have to make sure i plant in right place :o))
16 Feb, 2010
Ginellie - excellent price! If you get a large plant in flower from a GC, you could pay about £12.99 or more. The rarer named ones are even more than that - I've come across a yellow one for £25. WOW prices!
16 Feb, 2010
Will look out for the pics J.
16 Feb, 2010
Looking forward to seeing them when there open esspecially the red.
17 Feb, 2010

Their doing well, Jacque. I like these but they just don't seem to survive in my garden.
17 Feb, 2010
Thats sad to hear Gee :( I wonder why not? Its very Clay Soil & Damp where these r Planted :/ Im surprised they Survive being planted there !
17 Feb, 2010
Mmm...mine are in damp clay too and yet.....they seem fine!
17 Feb, 2010
I think it may be something to do with the tortoises eating them during the summer :)
17 Feb, 2010
