2g Honeymoon Series French Kiss Lenten Rose
Helleborus 'French Kiss'

White flowers with red veins in the center

Hellebores are bushy, clumping and flowering evergreen perennials, that make a great addition to a shade or woodland garden. Since they need partial to full shade and rich, moist soil, they pair well with ferns and hostas.

Winter or early spring-blooming flowers are noted for producing single, cup-shaped flowers (typically 2 to 3 inches in diameter) in a large variety of colors, including various shades and tints of white, pink, red, purple, and yellow. Blossoms usually appear on the tips of the plant's branched stems in late winter extending into early spring. 

Cut back flowering stems after bloom to promote new foliage growth. Established plants can become congested but can be divided in late summer to early fall.  Deer and rabbits tend to avoid this plant. These plants can be grown in mass plantings in shady locations or where the clumps will slowly spread through self-seeding.
