Beautiful. I saw a lot of these at Alnwick gardens and they are such lovely plants.

They are pretty and they seem to be tough in the garden. I noticed this one has that purplish colour on the blooms which was different from the other ones in the group.

I think this one is also H. argutifolius in my garden but not sure.

This is one of the plants I saw at Alnwick, this too has that lovely pink backing on the petals.

Wow, that's one happy Hellebore! I really like that purple tinge but was the one you saw labelled as a cultivar?

I can't honestly remember, I have a yearly pass to the gardens so I'll check on my next visit :)
