My hellebores have really short stems and are downward facing. It just cheers me to see them in the garden when nothing else is up.

My hellebores face downwards too - but this particular variety has long enough stems for cutting. They drop a lot of seeds, but all the little seedlings take a long time to mature. I bought a whitish one that has much shorter stems.

Great goal, lol. Aren't we lucky?

I don't think that co-op is going to fly, Tee - I don't think we've met the minimums. Crying

Could be I'll have to break down and pay full price ... it's truly against my religion, lol.

Another great article from Fine Gardening March/April 2012.

That article is lovely. I check my Helles every day. My last known photo of a blooming one is mid March so about 3 more weeks.
