My Helleborus orientalis has taken off this year, after several years
of one or two short-lived blooms and sparse foliage. Most of the flowers
appear to be developing seed pods, even though there haven't been any
bees yet.
How should this plant be propagated? Cuttings? Division?
I'd like the plant to self-sow; should I avoid using mulch around
the plant?
By the way, my plant has a boring color range; the flowers are
greenwish white and blend into the foliage. Are there more interesting
species available?
