Notes

'Confetti Cake' Lenten rose (Helleborus 'Confetti Cake') is a perennial for shade gardens, borders, ground cover, and winter interest. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy, clay, or chalky soil. The evergreen leaves stay on the plant through the cold months. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. White and dark pink bicolor flowers open in winter and spring.
