The first one is lovely
Mine have been blooming for several weeks now... strange they are normally late in my garden, but it have been so very mild
Only have the old red one and the old white one
Why don't I get some nicer ones

It's been kind of a funny winter here in Richmond, B.C. I have an unknown Hellebore that was pretty much open at the same time it was last year, but my 'Ivory Prince' will be more than a week later. Last year it was beginning to flower on the 4th of February, here it is the 11th and all I can see is buds. And lots of buds I might add, it sure has grown over the past year and there will be quite the number of flowers this year.

Very nice Andi. You are lucky, the bulk of my plants bloomed very early (Dec-Jan) and maybe 80% or so of all flowers were killed=no seed. There are a few opening now or still in bud which would usually be the 'normal' flowering time here. I suppose the upside is I'll be less confused about what to pollinate.
