Hellebore Spotlight:
‘Anna's Red’
Last year, we were excited to offer you
Hellebore ‘Penny's Pink’. This year we have her
sister seedling, ‘Anna's Red’. It's hard to decide
what we love most about this new cultivar, the
bouquet of deep purple flowers which appear
the first year after vernalization, or the stunning
spring foliage. It emerges bronzy green veined
in vibrant pink—stunning!
