Content: Using examples from my own gardens, I will cover everything and anything you ever wanted to know about hellebores, including:

 How to grow and maintain them
 How to propagate them by division and seedlings
 How to pick the best plants
 The difference between “species” and. “hybrid” hellebores
 What makes a superior hybrid hellebore
 What is special about the 15 or so species of hellebores
 Some of the interesting new species crosses available
 A special selection of hellebores will be available for purchase, including rare plants potted just for the seminars

The seminars are suitable for any level gardener as long as you can listen to discussions of the most esoteric qualities of hellebores without your eyes glazing over. Questions and observations from the group are encouraged. Feel free to bring samples for identification and discussion.
