Green hellebore
Helleborus viridis
Green hellebore thrives in dappled shade with consistently moist, humus-rich soil and benefits from a sheltered woodland-garden setting. Water regularly during dry spells but avoid waterlogging, as this European native prefers cool, shaded conditions. Remove old foliage in late winter to show off the distinctive green blooms and reduce disease.
