About this plant

Helleborus ‘Ivory Prince’ is an elegant Lenten rose that thrives in part to full shade and moist, well-drained soil. The outward-facing creamy white flowers are delicately streaked with rose-pink, blooming from late winter into spring when color is most welcome. This hybrid offers larger, showier blooms than many hellebores and features handsome evergreen foliage. Gardeners in Falmouth appreciate its reliable performance in challenging shady spots where few plants excel.
