Looks interesting.
NightHawk:
Thanks for that link Eric. A very interesting site indeed. 8)
We have 2 Helleborus orientalis plants in the front garden and 4 of them in the back garden.
There's 1 Helleborus ericsmithii in the back garden, and this is Kathy's favourite.

I dont have enough Hellebores in my garden. Thanks for the reminder - will buy some more.
I have a few H. niger and a few (bought untagged - what I have identified to be) H. corsicus OR H. argutifolius (is there a difference, or is the former a synonym of the latter?)
Whens the best time to plant?
NightHawk:
We don't know about the names you've mentioned George, but the best time to plant is now.
As a comparison, Kathy bought an established plant and a new plant a while ago. The new plant didn't flower until the following year, so she recommends that it is an investment to buy a more mature plant that's already in flower.

Selection of mine. We have about 100 culimps. More pics available
H. x ballardii
H foetidus
H. thibetana
H. hybrids of various forms.
Double forms
I cannot find a picture of H. argutifolius, but the flowers are like H. foetidus only pure green. Nor can I find one of H. purpurescens. I think one of the deeper purple ones above may be it.
H. corsicus is a synonym for H. argutifolius
