The elegant and evergreen perennial Helleborus (Lenten Rose) features graceful, cup-shaped blooms in shades of white, pink, purplish-maroon or spotted hues that appear in late winter or early spring. These long-lived plants thrive in Canadian gardens when planted in part-shade to full shade and in rich, humus-filled, well-drained soil with neutral to slightly alkaline pH. Deep-green leathery foliage remains attractive year-round, and because hellebores are deer-resistant and able to withstand cold weather, they’re an excellent choice for shaded garden corners or woodland-edge borders.
