It is such a beautiful time of year! It was very warm here this weekend too - it could even be said to have been hot! Everything is bursting into bloom.

Your hellebores are gorgeous. I need to show this post to Chris. He's always anxious to find new plants. It was a gorgeous weekend. Just what I needed for another long work week ahead.

Very nice to see those spring blooms! I wish I had a shady spot for some hellebores. Really like the colors of yours!

Spring is keeping us on our toes...it seemed to have taken so long, and now suddenly it's bags are unpacked and it's here to stay.

I love bloglovin...just haven't had a lot of time to play around with it, due to spring arriving.

How are you feeling about it?

I just bought a Hellebore..$31.00..I can't believe the price of perennials now. I think it is white..I have a very shady area where it will be happy..Pretty pictures Lynne..I am enjoying these 60-70 degree days..

I love the hellebore plants but don't have any. They are so pretty. It's been sunny and warm here too and things are growing and bursting beautifully. I'm loving this weather! Have a beautiful week Lynne. Pam

Hellebores are one of my favorites. Mine usually bloom in February or early March and the flowers last forever. I've been letting them reseed. I have hundreds of babies under the mother plants. I've separated a few of the larger ones hoping to have more plants. Have a wonderful week. Bonnie
