More information

This brand new hybrid hellebore is a compact, robust, highly floriferous plant that is really easy to grow in any climate and in any soil, even fairly dry. Its large, fully open flowers adorn their white petals with a fairly intense purple-pink rim, which quickly fades towards the centre, where it meets vibrant yellow stamens. Its dark green, glossy foliage is equally impressive, veined with light green for an extra touch of brightness. This is an excellent perennial garden plant that will live for many years without maintenance. It also grows very well in pots.

Description

The Hellebore Ice 'N' Roses Marbled Macy Marble is a recent hybrid of Christmas rose with exceptional qualities. Obtained in Germany and introduced in 2017, it combines all the qualities of its parents, including H. corsicus, H. niger, and H. orientalis. Very robust, it is resistant to cold, heat, and rather dry soils in summer. This variety offers petals beautifully edged with a fairly intense purple-pink, which gradually fades towards the centre of the flower invaded by white and yellow stamens. It flowers for a long time, from December to April, and produces up to 15 stems per plant, each developing several large flowers on compact stems. Its highly ornamental foliage is dark green, marbled with light green, strongly dentate, dark, and leathery. This hellebore will live for many years in the garden, in all climates.

Hellebores belong to the Ranunculaceae family. Helleborus x glandorfensis Ice 'N' Roses® is a complex horticultural hybrid belonging to a series of Christmas roses developed in Germany after many years of research and rigorous selection. The flowers of Ice 'N' Roses hellebores come in 3 colours: red, pink, and white.

Ice 'N'Roses Marbled Macy Marble is a solid perennial plant, with remarkable longevity, fairly rapid growth, and vigorous vegetation, but sterile; its reproduction is possible (and delicate) only by division of clumps. It has a bushy habit, with a mature plant reaching 30cm (12in) in height and at least 50cm (20in) in spread. From December to March-April, appear brownish stems not very tall, bearing white-purple buds that open into flowers with 5 petals in the same white and purple-pink duo, with a satiny texture, 6-7cm (2-3in) wide, and featuring beautiful yellow stamens in their centre. The evergreen foliage is composed of fairly leathery leaves, 10 to 30cm (4 to 12in) long, borne on brownish petioles. They are divided into 5 to 7 oval or lanceolate segments, strongly dentate, dark green in colour, marbled with light green. This Hellebore is hardy up to -20°C (-4°F) and tolerates a wide range of soils, whether they are limestone or clay, humiferous or sandy, constantly moist or even dry in summer.

This rather revolutionary hellebore is full of qualities. It should thrive in all our gardens, from the north to the south. From the first year, numerous flowers already appear on the plants. New flowers constantly form, creating a beautiful contrast between the open flowers and the faded ones. These flowers can be perfectly used in bouquets. It is also a good ground cover for partially shaded areas of the garden. Use hellebores like elements of an ancient tapestry, mixing them with brightly coloured understorey plants. They are well highlighted when planted near evergreen bushes of moderate size (Mahonia 'Apollo', Nandina 'Fire Power') and under conifers (especially on wind-exposed sites). Surround them with primroses, wood anemones, Corydalis, Dicentras, cardamines, or spring-flowering bulbs, and snowdrops. You can also plant them in groups, like a bouquet, near the entrance of the house, in a shaded position, to enjoy their early flowering up close. They are suitable for beds, borders, and containers. Over time, the flowers of the Hellebore do not fade like the majority of other flowers, but dry up.

Planting and care

The HGC Ice 'N' Roses Hellebore is not very demanding on soil type: it tolerates limestone and fairly dry soils in summer, as well as clayey and cool soils. However, it particularly appreciates rich, rather heavy and well-worked soils. Plant it in partial clear shade in fertile soil, enriched with leaf compost, kept moist to help it establish. Incorporate good compost at planting. Hellebores do not like stagnant water that can cause root rot. Planting under the clear shade of large leafy trees is perfect. These perennials are easy-going plants, but they should not be stressed or disturbed. They have a reputation for being homebodies: once well established, they do not like to be transplanted. Young plants can take 2 to 3 years to flower, sometimes more, but afterwards, there will be no more problems. Over the weeks, their color darkens, but they do not fade like most flowers, rather they dry up.

On a balcony or terrace, plant them in pots 4 to 5 times larger than them, as they need space to develop their root system. Very hardy, most hellebores can withstand negative temperatures down to -15°C (5°F) without suffering, allowing them to adapt to almost all regions of France.
