I've always admired hellebores (and snowdrops) for their vital force to come through even frozen snow - and they are just tender flowers!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what colours they yeild :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comments:)
ReplyDeleteNow the snow has melted around that hellebore, some snow is still left, but most of the garden is now without snow.. I'm so happy:)
Hi Leena -it is exciting seeing the plants starting to grow. We have cleared more space for more plants and so when all danger of frost is over we will start planting out I am looking forward to reading about all your dyeing experiments! at the moment have ivy berries sitting in a pot soaking. They have been there for a week and the water is dark purple.
