Welcome to the new forum Chris please fill in the signature strip in your profile so everyone knows where you are.
Nice plant, I love plants that will flower both before, during and after the winter.

Hi Chris,
I was wondering about you,long time no see in the forum.
The Hellebores you are showing here is again A Juwel of the Crown.
Hope to see it live sometime in the spring. :)the Hepaticas I brought home last spring are all in puuurfect condition.
Geebo,
This Picture is one I grow from your seeds

Great plants, Chris, showing class.
Love that raspberry flower, Geebo, from our Dutch speaking Belgian forumist! A good deep colour that isn't easy to get all over the flower,  you see lots of ones that look sort of tie-dyed, they can be pretty, but I like this solid tone.
I like to find such flowers but Ian says we have no room for more Hellebores.... funny how he always has room for Erythroniums!

Hi all,
thank you for your reply, Geebo I had a verry buzzy year, my mother was for a wile in a hospital and now I'm building a new alpinehouse, I do my best to show more pics, I think my crossing of H.niger double x H.tibetanus will flower in a few weeks, Maggy my Hellebores growing together with Erythroniums but space is here also a problem together with time.
I dint say anything about the new Forum sorry, Congratulations I like it verry much, I just have to find better my way,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I am very much interested in to know what species were already crossed with Helleborus thibetanus (besides H. niger). Was there any success in hybridisation between thibetanus x orientalis?

Looking forward to see lots more.

Hi Maggy,
Glad you like the Hellebore pic,and I think you have just give it a name,I like to call raspberry if I may?Oh its easy to understand Ian about having no more Hellebores,but for me it is one of my adictions.And it easy run out of hand.
And yes Maureen and myself are looking out for a few Erytroniums in the future,we have some lined up for next spring.
Geebo.

This sounds good, Geebo, I can just see the  Raspberry Hellebore growing with some lovely pink Erythronium revolutum.... Mind you, it will need to flower much later to make a show at the same time as them, or is the hellebore picture not from right now?

[Geebo]

Sorry did not reply sooner,you were right Maggi the helleborus is one of last year,so she will flower this time,around the time the erythronium get to flower,although there are lots of Helleborus orien showing bud,it looks promising.Got some nice plants from "Harvey`s last week,also Erythronium revolutum "Knightshayes pink".
Posting a few Pictures taking with my new camera.sure the will improve with time.
Geebo.

and last My first Betty Ranicar from seed.

[Maggi Young]

Geebo, I'll email you with instructions how to get more pix in one post. Easier to do that than try to explain here because if I do that I cannot wite the proper orders or the machine will go looking for photos that are not there!

Geebo,

Outstanding hellebores. I particularly like the H. orientalis white - it's so hard to get a good clear clean white. Your last posting of H. 'Betty Ranicar' is a most unusual flower in a hellebore, an excellent plant.
