Hellebores


Orientalis hybrids are blooming in my garden--earliest ever.  Looks like
argutifolius and foetidissima will soon follow.

Amazing how drought-resistant these things are.  We had no rain to speak of
from June to early December and I did not water them.  No problem! And they
are coming up all over the place from self-sown seed, especially
foetidissima.  Got to cut off those old stalks earlier this year.
