Thanks to our new online direct ship program, it’s easier than ever to bring the magic of winter-blooming plants like hellebores straight to your door.
Hellebores: The Winter Rose
Known as the “Christmas Rose” or “Lenten Rose,” hellebores are a must-have for any winter garden. These hardy perennials bloom in late winter, showcasing delicate flowers in shades of white, pink, purple, and even green. Their nodding blooms emerge through the snow, creating an enchanting, fairy-tale-like effect.
Now available through Fran’s Flowers’ online direct ship program, you can order these winter beauties from the comfort of your home and have them delivered right to your doorstep. Hellebores thrive in partial shade and well-drained soil, making them a fantastic choice for woodland gardens or shady borders. One of our favorites is Hellebore ‘Dark & Handsome’
