Last year, I bored you senseless with endless eulogies devoted to the noble hellebore, so I won't inflict a similar experience on you this year.

But, since it's hellebore time, I just had to seize the opportunity to celebrate this glorious harbinger of spring, so you'll just have to bear with me:-

 

Bliss!!!

And now I'm off for a bike ride...

In a strange (or maybe not) coincidence, I drooled over hellebores today and vowed to totally plant some so I can have a bit more garden cheer next year.

Also, I have more crocuses than Blenheim Palace.

I peaked at 15 last year but I've since lost a couple. I tried planting two beautiful variegated Helleborus Foetidus plants (sounds better than Stinking Hellebores...) but I lost them due to crown rot. If I see similar plants this year, I'll try again, in a slightly drier location.

They were gorgeous:-(
