Helleborus orientalis (Lenten rose) in white brings elegant, nodding blooms from late winter into spring, lighting shaded borders when little else is in flower. The semi-evergreen, leathery foliage forms tidy clumps that thrive in partial to full shade, ideal for woodland edges and underplanting shrubs. Plant in moisture-retentive, humus-rich, well-drained soil (neutral to alkaline) and allow to establish; its a reliable, long-lived perennial for dry shade once settled, and a classic choice for cottage-style planting.
