Nan  Hi

We grow Helleborous orientalis very successfully here in Crete. Long hot dry
summers (with irrigation) and cool wet winters. Although at this time of the
year the old leaves are looking 'manky' However, I cut their old leaves,
feed and water them and they increase and flower reliably year upon year.
There are so many lovely forms of H,o that is is difficult to stop buying
and planting, we have a ever increasing patch.

Oh forgot to mention shade. This is a prime requisite.
