Helleborus Honeymoon® ‘New York Night’

Product Details

Inky shades of black and deep purple are quite striking on the 2½–3” flowers of Helleborus Honeymoon® ‘New York Night.’ A Lenten Rose as dramatic in the garden as they are in vases.

These aristocrats of the woodland garden are native to Europe and western Asia. The genus Helleborus contains about 20 species of perennials that bloom in early winter in mild climates and in late winter or early spring where the soil freezes hard, which makes them either the last or the first flowers in the garden. They require a moist but well-drained site with some shade. Take care to amend the soil with plenty of organic matter, such as well-aged leaf mold and compost. You’ll be rewarded with long-lived, deer- and vole-resistant plants that will spread nicely on their own.
