Looking promising Michael - mine were also almost to the stage of opening some flowers but they were flattened by a sharp night frost this morning...  ;D so it will take some more time yet...  :-\

I really like that one Ian. It reminds me somewhat of our Teddy. Although he's largely a white dog, if he took the skinhead (skinbody) route, he'd look like a dalmation. Every part of his little body is covered with black spots. ;D

Thank you glad you liked it. What doesn't come over in the photo is the rich underlay of creamy yellow.

A great acquisition Ian, it looks and sounds a sumptuous colour combination - will it come true if increased?

 This pic sent by a French friend.... it is always one of the first to flower in her garden.....
Can anyone offer an ID for this hellebore ;I'm thinking simply a Helleborus hybridus......?

Maggi I'm sure that you are right x hybridus. Doesn't look like any true species to me
