Double Pink Helebore

So pretty.

I absolutely love this one :O)

A lot of them are sterile sadly.

yes I found that out last year, thanks Karen, and its always the very pretty ones isn't it! still scared about chopping into it in case it disappears, and still plucking up courage to cut into my hostas too. lol watch this space lol.

The Hostas are bullet proof. Have no fear on that score. I've never split a Hellebore though. Good luck with that!

taa. the way I dither about cutting things up I might never get around to it. lol.

Beautiful, Olive!

thanks Balcony :O)

Hosta, no fear. Practice on those. Helly, careful...One of my favs, but does not like me!

thanks Wells, I have split the Hosta this morning into three smaller plants, hopefully they will survive.

I split my hellebores autumn before last, it did them the world of good. It is a tough job though, I had to use a serrated bread knife to saw through the roots. You just need to make sure you leave 3-4 growth eyes on each clump. Best time is September or October.

thank you Greenfinger for the information I was wondering when to do it. Brilliant idea to use the knife, will try to remember that one. :O)
