Hellebore Penny's Pink, Lenten Rose Penny's Pink, Rodney Davey Marbled Group, Helleborus 'Abcrd01'
Noted for its unique foliage and the beauty of its flowers, Helleborus ‘Penny’s Pink’ (Hellebore) features large, single, bright mauve blossoms, 3 in. wide (7 cm), adorned with a crown of creamy stamens. Unlike most hellebores, the flowers face outward, attracting interest. Opening from dark purple buds, these charming and dainty beauties turn deeper pink and take on green tones as they mature. Blooming heavily for weeks from late winter to mid-spring, they rise on sturdy stems above the most attractive leathery foliage. Each leaf is held on purplish pink petioles. Emerging bronzy green in spring, the evergreen leaves display conspicuous hot pink veins, which gradually mature to bright emerald green, creating a lovely marbling effect that can be admired all year. Showy and long-lasting, ‘Penny’s Pink blooms in the first year and is ideal for brightening the shade garden.
