Hellebores are beautiful and inspiring perennials that bloom in winter and early spring with a wide range of colours, flower forms, and foliage types. Learn how to combine them artistically with a pallet of winter and spring interest plants and bulbs to create knock out seasonal containers to grace your front door, patio, and garden. Then plant up your own container to take home!
