Helleborus x ballardiae HGC ‘Pink Frost’ | Pink Frost Lenten Rose
DESCRIPTION
Helleborus x ballardiae HGC ‘Pink Frost’ is a charming perennial plant that adds elegance and beauty to any garden. The plant forms a low clump of leathery, deep green leaves with silvery veins, providing year-round interest. In late winter to early spring, ‘Pink Frost’ produces nodding, cup-shaped flowers with pale pink petals and a prominent cluster of yellow stamens at the center. These blooms gradually age to a deeper pink, extending the visual appeal over several weeks.
‘Pink Frost’ thrives in partial to full shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. It is relatively low-maintenance, requiring minimal pruning and upkeep once established. It is also deer and rabbit resistant, making it an excellent choice for gardens where these animals are present. This hellebore is a delightful addition to woodland gardens, shaded borders, or as a container plant, adding beauty and interest year after year.
