Hellebore update

This is the most flowers that this hellebore has ever had! I'll have to look around for more hellebores to plant elesewhere in the garden.
The red trilliums (nursery-grown from seed) are also thriving and the clump appears to be getting larger. I'm looking forward to seeing whether the single white-flowered trillium plant will have grown as much as well.
Seeing the bloodroot open its delicate flowers in the morning and then close them every evening is always a joy. It has started to spread in the garden -- there are two new tiny flowering plants several meters away from the parent clump this spring! The foliage will be a welcome addition to the texture of the garden as spring changes into summer.
