Helleborus orientalis ‘Anemone Aubergine with White Edge’ is a captivating perennial that stands out for its unique and exquisite flowers. A bloom features deep aubergine petals, accented by a striking white edge, resembling the delicate beauty of the anemone. Flowering from late winter to early spring, it brings a splash of dramatic colour to gardens when most other plants are still dormant. The blooms are complemented by its dark green, leathery foliage, which remains evergreen in most climates, providing year-round interest. The intricate contrast between the rich purple and crisp white margin creates an eye-catching display. Helleborus orientalis thrive in partial to full shade and prefer well-drained, humus-rich soil, and are particularly well-suited for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and underplanting beneath deciduous trees. Fully hardy, it is also noted for its resilience, being both deer-resistant and relatively low-maintenance once established. Long-lasting, it will form attractive clumps over time up to a height and spread of 35cm.
