Here are some of the Lenten roses that I started with a small plant from the Franklin Garden Club sale several years ago.
I was happy to add the pretty rose Lenten Rose last year.

The Lenten Rose
The helleborus or Lenten Rose ...a welcome sign that spring may be on its way!
Of course, the name Lenten Rose suggests its appearance comes close to the beginning of Lent.
It's February, still rather chilly but the Lenten Rose is already blooming this year. It will last a while, but the dates on the pictures tell me it was a little late getting started in earlier years. It has grown beautiful new leaves to replace those that died away and had to be cut last year.
Incidentally, I got this at a garden club plant sale
several years ago. I also got a pink one, but it has been hiding. These sales are a great place to get interesting local plants. I will try to get some more current pictures this year.
