Tell Me More...
Helleborus orientalis ‘Anemone Purple Violet’ is a stunning perennial that enchants gardeners with its rich, purple-violet blooms. Celebrated for its large, anemone-like flowers that appear from late winter to early spring, they provide a welcome burst of colour when most plants are still dormant. Each flower boasts a deep, velvety hue with a delicate array of stamens at the centre. The foliage is equally appealing, with dark green, leathery leaves that remain evergreen in mild climates, offering year-round interest. Hellebores thrive in partial to full shade, and are an excellent choice for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and underplanting beneath deciduous trees. Preferring well-drained, humus-rich soil they are renowned for their resilience and ease of care. Helleborus ‘Anemone Purple Violet’ is deer-resistant and relatively pest-free, making it a low-maintenance option for gardeners. Over time, it forms attractive clumps with a height and spread of 35cm and is a perfect choice for those looking to add a touch of elegance and early spring colour to their gardens.
