Flowering from February, Helleborus ‘Snow Frills’ has leathery, deep dark green foliage and double, cup shaped flowers with a large yellow centre and pure white petals.

Along with being easy to care for, they are very versatile, and suitable for gardens or displaying indoors in pots and flowering arrangements. They can withstand severe cold and snow, and flower all winter long.

Care instructions:
– Avoid planting directly in the frozen soil. Optimal planting time in the UK is September to December, allowing plants to establish before the warm spring and hot summer.
– Container planting is possible throughout the year; use containers that are large and deep enough to prevent roots from freezing the in the winter, and ensure there are drainage holes in the bottom of the container.
– Water well after planting. Avoid waterlogged conditions in winter.
– Remove seed pods before they open to avoid slowing up plant growth in spring and summer. Clear old/brown leaves in spring and summer to make space for fresh growth.
– Feeding is not required during the first flowering season. Use balanced organic fertilisers to feed older plants in February/March and repeat in July/August.
