    I 've got a special box that's kept in a drawer in the spare room. Has to be separate from the decorations cos you need them earlier.

    Wow @Fire that Anna's Red is one gorgeous Helebore. I'll be looking out for that one!
    Clay soil - Cheshire/Derbyshire border. 

    I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful

    @VictorMeldrew I have found they keep their colour really well over the years and don't go sludgy. Anna's Red is not red, of course, it's pink. But an interesting dark pink.

    A lovely hellebore indeed, @Fire.

    Yes, that's a stunning Hellebore @Fire, not just for the intensity of the flower colour but also the marbling on the leaves!
    Wirral. Sandy, free draining soil.

    Oxford. The City of Dreaming Spires.
    And then my heart with pleasure fills,
    And dances with the daffodils (roses). Taking a bit of liberty with Wordsworth :)
