EXPOSURE Helleborus like cool roots at all times and grow best with sun protection. It is very important to prevent the sun from shining directly on the pots at any time.Therefore, leave as little space between pots as possible and make sure the leaves cover the pots, creating shade on the pot. In the summer months, when temperatures are warmer take further precaution by using 30-35% shade cloth. If overwintering under plastic, be sure to use a white poly vs. clear poly. This will help keep plants from burning on sunny days.

TEMPERATURE In the fall, the perfect temperature for growing Hellebores is between 40-50°F, this range triggers the flowers to initiate. Depending on the climate this will occur between September and December. In winter, keep the Helleborus inside a frost- free greenhouse with temperatures ranging between 32-40°F. When there is no frost the plants will flower by their natural genetics, if there is frost, it will postpone the flowering time. In the summer months, it is important to shade at 30-35% when temperatures rise above 80°F.
