Helleborus x sternii Blackthorn Group
Helleborus Blackthorn Group has dark, serrated foliage that holds aloft clusters of dusty rose and green cupped flowers.
Helleborus x sternii has thick, blue-green, silver-washed foliage with prominent serrated edges held by deep red petioles on compact, multi-stemmed plants. The flowers appear in clusters at the top of each stem in late winter. They are small and cream coloured with a dusty rose blush on the back of each tetal. A cross between H. argutifolius and H. lividus. As with all stemmed hellebores plant in more sun than the hybridus types. Deer resistant.
