Description
"Winter Hellebore" by Debbie Oppermann. Whether the ground is sodden and soft or encrusted with snow and ice, flowers of Winter Aconite, Eranthis hyemalis, or Winter Hellebore, burst out just when the winter garden most needs an injection of colour. From afar, these tiny tuberous perennials create a wash of egg-yolk yellow. Each buttercup-like flower sits amid green bracts that look like tiny Elizabethan ruffs. They are a spring ephemeral, it blossoms and grows in earliest spring before any trees are in leaf or even in bloom. I am always so excited when these dainty bright yellow blooms show their faces in my garden because you know spring is near!
