It’s said that Hellebores bloom in the snow, often around Christmas time – but mine don’t! Mine bloom near the end of March or early April. They are not blooming yet, but their leaves are greening up so I expect to see lovely flowers like the one above (photo take a few years ago in my yard) very soon.
The Hellebore is such a lovely flower, it’s a shame that the flowers droop down. To take pictures of them I have to prop the flower head up on a leaf or gently hold it’s stem with my hand while trying to keep my hand or fingers out of the picture. I guess they make more work for me when I’m trying to photograph them, but it’s worth it.
