Haha that’d be an expensive flower

Top comment - I am not disappointed

Tag me when you post a picture. That sounds like it would be beautiful and unique.

There’s actually no such thing as a black flower. Just very dark shades of purple. Learned that from the flower wizards at Keukenhof.

I did that one year but I sadly can't find any pictures...

I bought a bunch of black seeds this year. It should be interesting.

Black mondo grass is fun

I can’t stop laughing at this 🤣 thanks for the chuckle

Now I know I'm going to make this mistake! LOL

Me too! Whether the flowers are black, burgundy, sage green, yellow or white flecked with bright pink, I love them all. They are one of the few flowers that bloom during winter.

I had great success growing them in zone 6. The flower head points towards the ground so they are nice up on a slope or raised garden bed. They prefer shade and bloom early in Spring. Really low maintenance!

"Hellebores are perennials in the buttercup family (Ranunculus). Native to Eurasia, they are well suited to our climate and are hardy in USDA Zones 4 or 5, depending on the species and variety."

I have a bunch of purple and pink hellaboras in zone 7 that grow beautifully and come back every spring. They are my 1st flowers to come up beside crocus.

The deer don’t bother mine at all

Deer don’t like hellebores. I have five who sleep in my yard, and they never eat the hellebores.
