Left it all night to load, the photo has gone from the file but has not appeared on here. I give up. It's called penny's pink, it stands about 2' high in it's pot and the flowers are a open cup form. The top 6" of the stalk branch so that there can be as many as 8 flowers to a stalk, and the flowers are held in a more upturned position than the orientalis generally is. The plant has quite an open structure to it giving it a sense of movement. The leaves are the typical 5 lobed, but rather than the spear shaped of the orientalis , each lobe is spoon shaped with a point and more pronounce serrations, they are dark green with pale green colouring of the veins and dark red stems.
I suppose it is all down to what question one answers. I answered the one asked, which was .'Can one' . The answer is Yes, but if the question had been "Should I?" then I would have said no, not until it is a lot bigger.
Hello again, just done some nebbing and if you put in helleborus pennys pink into the site finding bit when you first fire up the internerd it brings up a whole gallery of pictures.
thankyou Berghill, I'm going to leave it for a couple of years to get well established, I'm building a new Japenese inspired garden around the back and theres a bed that is in shade so hopefully it will be happy there and if it looks lonely I'll just have to go buy it a friend.

tree icon, pick photo, upload,wait until it finishes uploading (may take some time) and then save. You then press submit.
can be a lot of time,especially for a large file. I reduce mine or it takes forever. I don't know what a megabyte is but I get the photos down to 1MB.
In the sticks near Peterborough
