Always a cute addition, Helleborus ‘Flower Girl’ (Lenten Rose) is part of the double blooming Wedding Party® series of Lenten Rose. If you are looking for an early blooming perennial this is your plant. ‘Flower Girl’ is a double bloom that is features shades of pale pink with magenta picotee edges and veining and occasionally blooms will have a splash of magenta dots. Each bloom gets 2.5-3 inches across and is very floriferous.
With blooms starting in late winter, ‘Flower Girl’ is known to bloom up to 6 weeks, and after that the spent blooms are equally as beautiful for weeks longer. Grown in part shade to full shade is where helleborus are most at home. They prefer damp to moist soil conditions, great for woodland gardens. The dark green foliage is semi evergreen. You can trim back in the fall or leave the foliage for winter interest. Helleborus ‘Flower Girl’ is a deer and rabbit resistant perennial for the shade hardy down to zone 4. (Source: Garden Crossings)
