So, you can watch the magnificent ‘Ice breaker Max’ flourish in a variety of positions around the garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo get the best display of blooms, plant your Hellebore in a hole at least double the size of the root ball. Immerse the potted root ball in a bucket of water before planting and wait for the bubbles to stop rising to the surface. Then loosen the soil around the hole and position the Hellebore, lightly covering it with soil. Once planted create a small circular ridge in the soil around the blooms to aid water retention. Ensure that your Hellebore doesn’t dry out, but don’t over water it either. You will then enjoy this floral delight that returns year after year, getting more beautiful as it matures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 2-Litre and 4.5-Litre Pot Sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA member of the Royal Horticultural Society Plants for Pollinators Collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlower colour: White with a green tinge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoliage: Evergreen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoliage colour: Dark green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAspect: Full sun or partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil: Well drained but moist soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil pH: Acid, Neutral, Alkaline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardiness: Fully hardy but needs a sheltered position\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlowering period: December, January, February, March\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures: Perfect for pots and containers, attracts wildlife, long flowering period, low maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMature Plant Height: 50 – 60cm \/ 20 – 24″\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasurements are approximate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Gates Garden Centre","offers":[{"title":"4.5 litre pot","offer_id":56082351653189,"sku":"1094398","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"2 litre pot","offer_id":56082351685957,"sku":"1212671","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/7458\/1061\/files\/5c5add65-helleborus-ice-breaker-max-flowers.jpg?v=1761657711","url":"https:\/\/www.gatesgardencentre.co.uk\/products\/helleborus-sr-ice-breaker-max","provider":"Gates Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
