Close-up of one of the flowers just opening. I'll be able to figure out the variety once I see the flowers age a bit but I do know it is part of the gold collection.

Look like its a Niagara Helliborus or also known as a Laten Rose.

It's a lenten rose from the Helleborus Gold Collection. It was tagged as a pink variety but opened white.

Perhaps it will be like one of mine changes colour shame if it does nt , I would return it if it did nt selling you a wrong plant, my son use to work in a nursery and said if they can't shift a certain variety the boss said to label them with ones that will sell so wrong labling, so hence best to buy while in flower you know what your getting then.

This was in the ground last year, I'll have to see if I can find a picture because I thought it was pink when it flowered last year. I used to work at a retail nursery but some of our plants were labeled wrong because the wholesalers sent wrong tags or if the people tagging them weren't on the sales staff. Hard to buy a lenten rose in flower, the nurseries here close by the end of October and don't open until Spring.

You ll have to keep an eye out to see if it turns colour, yes like I said the nurseries place wrong labels to get rid of stock that don't sell so good.

It was pink last year when it was growing outdoors so I think the true color is pink. I used to work for the nursery I got it from so I know it wasn't purposely tagged wrong but I do know of nurseries that would try it.

Might be the weather then lets hope it goes to pink, yes I know garden centres too that would change labels.
