Helleborus 'Double Purple'
Hand pollinated seedlings from our best double purple plants. Strain includes 'Dido' and 'Betty Ranicar'.
I spotted this dwarf poker in the UK years ago, where I was struck by its compact form and abundant hot-orange pokers. It is winter dormant and makes a good grassy mound of leaves when not in flower.
