Bob, your wish is my command! (Especially when it stops raining long enough for me to go outside and take some pictures) Big Grin

Helleborus foetidus 'Wester Flisk':

This is evergreen in my climate and grows with reckless abandon. Had to trim it rather severely last year because it was aspiring to take over the world (or at least the shady part of the woodland bed.)

Helleborus niger:

Of course I talk to myself; sometimes I need expert advice!
