Helleborus Honeymoon® ‘Spanish Flare’

Product Details

Pale yellow petals are accented by darkest purple red on the single-flowering Helleborus Honeymoon® ‘Spanish Flare’. These plants are a welcome sight in late winter or early spring when the blossoms appear against a background of glossy evergreen foliage.

These aristocrats of the woodland garden are native to Europe and western Asia. The genus Helleborus contains about 20 species of perennials that bloom in early winter in mild climates and in late winter or early spring where the soil freezes hard, which makes them either the last or the first flowers in the garden. They require a moist but well-drained site with some shade. Take care to amend the soil with plenty of organic matter, such as well-aged leaf mold and compost. You’ll be rewarded with long-lived, deer- and vole-resistant plants that will spread nicely on their own.
