Shades of Colour™

Winter Rose 250MM

Helleborus x hybrid

I am Winter Rose. My family originated from Alpine Europe.

Habit Shrub
Plant family Ranunculaceae
I am one of the most popular winter flowering plants for shady locations. I have a low bushy habit and my varieties flower prolifically with long lived blooms in an incredible range of colours including whites, deep reds, browns, purples and pinks. My blooms are often beautifully patterned and come in single and double forms. My foliage also comes in a broad range of colours but is typically more muted in shade than my blooms. I am long lived and tolerant of dry conditions making me a good choice for dry shady locations such as under trees. I am a good choice for pots as well as planting out in the garden working well in borders and mass plantings.
Caution: Harmful if eaten/skin irritant
I am popular and will make you happy because...
I produce attractive flowers from Winter to early Spring
My flowers may be cut for indoor use and floated in a bowl.
I tolerate drought and moderate frosts
