Notes
'Cotton Candy' Lenten rose (Helleborus 'Cotton Candy') is an evergreen perennial for borders, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy, clay, or chalky soil. It blooms in winter and spring, which brings color to the garden when little else is open. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It stays 12 to 24 inches tall and wide.
Pairs well with Common snowdrop, Caramel coral bells, and Siberian bugloss.
