Helleborus Angel Glow (Hellebore)
Angel Glow Hellebore, Helleborus 'B11-02'
Compact and vigorous, Helleborus Angel Glow is a first-year blooming Hellebore. This clump-forming, evergreen perennial produces pretty clusters of 6-9 pink buds opening to pale pink flowers that fade delicately to light green as they age. Blooming heavily for weeks from mid-winter to early spring, these charming beauties rise on sturdy, thick stems above the leathery, blue-green, evergreen foliage. Showy and long-lasting, ideal to brighten the shade garden!
- Grows in a bushy, upright clump, up to 12-16 in. tall (30-40 cm) and 8-12 in. across (20-30 cm).
- Performs best in part shade in fertile, humus-rich, moist, neutral to alkaline, well-drained soils. Avoid soils prone to drying out or staying wet.
- Select a sheltered site to protect your hellebores from cold winter winds.
- Easy to grow, this plant is a welcomed addition to shady borders, containers, under trees or large shrubs, woodland gardens, or cottage gardens. Plant in groups for the best visual impact.
- Hellebore flowers provide valuable nectar for early pollinators. Hellebore is not generally a plant that deer or other animals seek out to eat, but if other food sources are scarce, they may come along and make a meal out of your Hellebore.
- No serious pest or disease issues. Keep an eye out for aphids, snails, hellebore leaf spot, and hellebore black death.
- Remove faded flower stems (unless you require seed) to promote new growth and for a neat appearance.
- Propagate by division of larger clumps in early spring.
- Ingestion may cause severe discomfort, skin irritant. Wear gloves and other protective equipment when handling.
- Toxic to dogs, toxic to cats, toxic to horses, toxic to humans.
