Common questions about growing Helleborus

1. When should I buy Helleborus?

The best time to buy Helleborus is in winter when the plants are dormant or during spring as they come into flower.

Helleborus plants are relatively long-lived and can last for many years with proper care. Some varieties of Helleborus, such as Helleborus niger (Christmas rose) and Helleborus orientalis (Lenten rose), can live for up to 20 years. Other varieties of Helleborus, such as Helleborus purpurascens (purple helleborus) and Helleborus foetidus (stinking hellebore), have a shorter lifespan and may only last for 5-10 years.

3. Where do you plant Hellebores NZ?

In New Zealand, Hellebores can be planted in a variety of positions:

• Hellebores prefer full sun to partial shade. However, some varieties of Hellebores, such as Helleborus niger (Christmas rose) and Helleborus orientalis (Lenten rose), can tolerate more shade.
• Hellebores do not tolerate wet feet, so they need to be planted in well-drained soil. If your soil is heavy clay, you may want to add some sand or grit to improve drainage.
• Hellebores can be damaged by wind, so it is best to plant them in a sheltered position.
