Learn to care for Lenten rose, also known as hellebore. These early blooming flowers add beauty to your garden even before spring arrives.

Hellebores are typically considered winter and spring flowering plants. When all else in the yard is quiet, calm and might appear void of life, hellebore blooms light up even the darkest corners.

You can plant them at any time of year. They look good next to other early flowerers, such as Anemone blanda, aconites, Cyclamen coum, hepaticas and snowdrops are all good bed partners for hellebores.
