Hello Sharon,
I do not know which species or hybrids you have of Hellebores, but you
should be seeing something before long. If now do not be too quick to give
up on what you planted. sometimes hellebores will sulk when transplanted.
Also most of a plant can die off and one small piece of root can restart.
They are pretty tough plants. If you paid a goodly price for them I would
keep an eye out until around next fall. If nothing by then it is probably
gone. (Hellebores have two main growth cycles. They are active in late
winter- early spring and again in fall)
