Helleborus xballardiae ‘Pink Frost’

Skagit Gardens
Just one member of the outstanding Gold Series of hellebores, ‘Pink Frost’ produces an abundance of burgundy buds that open to soft pink flowers. As the flowers age, they darken, but as new flowers emerge the display becomes a stunning combination of white, pink and red flowers all at once. Dark green foliage has a marbled silver surface and red stems. Hardy to Zone 5, ‘Pink Frost’ blooms January to March and grows to 15 inches tall.
