Helleborus ‘Christmas Carol’
Christmas Rose

Helleborus ‘Christmas Carol’ is a charming evergreen perennial that brings a festive touch to the winter garden with its crisp white blooms and dark green, leathery foliage. This early-flowering hellebore is celebrated for its large, upward-facing flowers that appear as early as December, lasting through winter and into spring. Perfect for adding color and life to winter beds, shaded borders, or containers, ‘Christmas Carol’ is a low-maintenance gem that thrives in shaded areas.

With its compact size, ‘Christmas Carol’ is ideal for smaller spaces, rock gardens, or winter displays near entryways where its bright blooms can be enjoyed up close. Its evergreen leaves add texture year-round, and the plant is highly resistant to deer and rabbits, making it a reliable, hassle-free choice for any gardener.
