Beautiful hellebores. It seems we are seeing more diversity in hellebores today, more flower forms with differant flower color combinations.
In the USA we are seeing a flood of TC hellebore from interspecific hybridisations. It is very refreshing to see the true H. hybridus is alive and well in Japan.

yes in japan the hellebore scene is very active and species hellebores are very valued, not only big nurseries but also lots of small breeders and ambitious amateurs doing unusual crosses. would like to be there in the moment.
