Title: Hellebore seedling
Post by: Tee Gee on May 03, 2018, 14:51:55

Hi

I thought you might like to have a look at a Helleborus sternii seedling that  I have in bloom at the moment.

This is its 2nd year since sowing the seed!

I have never seen so many flowers on one hellibore plant.  Well done Tee Gee!  Are you feeding it with anything special?

Yes! " Neglect" !

I just leave it to its own resources!

Strange how some plants thrive with little or no attention.

When the flowers have died off I will cut off the branches that have flowered down to ground level and let the new growth develop to flower next year!
