Helleborus HGC Ice N' Roses Rose (2-Litre Pot)

Exceptionally hardy and robust, the Helleborus HGC Ice N' Roses Rose Hellebore is a wonderful variety that is part of the Helleborus Gold Collection (HGC). This premium quality bloom has incredibly large bright blooms that emerge pale pink and turn to deep red-purple hues as it matures. This creates a wonderful mix of colour, that is perfectly accented by the sunny yellow stamen in the centre.

The flowers start to bloom in December and last well into the spring, making them a great way to attract bees and other pollinators into your garden. This has been recognised by the Royal Horticultural Society who have added it to their Plants for Pollinators Collection.

This versatile flower is robust and vigorous, so can grow in almost any spot around the garden. Add to beds and borders or as underplanting for a range of shrubs and roses to create a wonderful display. Its neat and upright habit also suits a wide range of garden styles from cottage and informal gardens to city and courtyard gardens. We love growing them in pots and containers to enhance patio areas and balconies.

To get the most from this delightful Hellebore, position it in a place with full sun or partial shade, that is sheltered. This will protect the blooms from the harsh winter winds and keep them looking at their best for longer. It is fully hardy and suited to the UK climate, so you have peace of mind that you will enjoy this wonderful and robust bloom, all year-round.
