Helleborus ‘Vegas Nights’ is a Lenten Rose with large, single, slate gray to dark purple flowers, up to 3 in. across (7 cm). Blooming heavily in early to mid-spring, these nodding beauties rise on sturdy stems and contrast well with the glossy, dark green, evergreen foliage. Showy and long-lasting, this Lenten Rose provides year-round interest and is the perfect plant for naturalizing in moist, woodland areas.
