Helleborus x lemonnierae 'HGC Paradenia'
Hellébore Paradenia - Helleborus x lemonnieriae
I received my Paradenia Hellebore in very good condition. The young plant is not as sturdy as 'Mme Lemonnier', but it still has a beautiful open flower, stunning with its pure white contrasting with the purple of the delicate pistils, as well as another tiller of flower buds. These new cultivars look very promising, and I can't wait to see them well established and covered in flowers.

The Helleborus x lemonnieriae 'HGC Paradenia' is a beautiful recent French creation, which seduces with its long and abundant winter flowering, in the form of very large single white flowers held above a beautiful dark green evergreen foliage. This robust and very hardy perennial also has good ground cover capability. It can be grown in borders, under shrubs, mixed borders, as well as in pots. Easy to grow in all regions, even in heavy and chalky soil, it thrives in shade or non-burning sun. Its flowers are very beautiful and precious in winter bouquets.
The Helleborus x lemonnieriae is a herbaceous perennial plant of hybrid origin belonging to the Ranunculaceae family. The 'Paradenia' variety forms a clump 30 cm (12in) high and spreading at least 50 cm (20in), much more over the years. This variety stands out for its long-lasting continuous flowering, which starts in January and lasts until March. Its flowers, produced abundantly, proudly stand abovebeautiful dark and glossy foliage, offering their yellow stamen hearts to the eye. They are composed of 5 white petals barely tinged with green at the base, rounded, arranged in an open cup. The foliage consists of palmate basal leaves, slightly dentate, dark green and shiny. These are evergreen leaves 30 to 40 cm (12 to 16in) long, composed of 7 to 9 leaflets. They actually only live for 8 months and are regularly replaced by new leaves. The Hellébore does not like to be moved once established, with young shoots taking a while to flower. The seeds are sown by ants.
Use hellebores as elements of an ancient tapestry, mixing them with understory plants in brighter colours. They are beautifully highlighted when planted near pieris, rhododendrons, under conifers and surrounded by primroses, anemones, corydalis or dicentras. You can also accompany them with ferns and shade-loving irises to create a beautiful contrast later in the season. Perfect for cut flowers, plant them in large numbers in borders, beds or containers. Helleborus flowers do not wither over time like most other flowers but dry elegantly.

Botanical data
The hellebore is a plant that can grow in various soils, including clayey or light soil. It needs partial or light shade and protection from cold and strong winds. When planting, choose a spot between February and April and ensure the soil is rich in organic matter. Use bone meal or another organic fertiliser to promote healthy growth. Water the plants after planting and cover them with mulch. Leave a space of 30 to 40 cm between each plant. Avoid stagnant water, as it may cause the hellebore to rot.
In summer, avoid letting the roots completely dry out. Remove any old or spotted leaves to prevent black spot disease, a fungal disease transmitted by aphids. Remove faded flowers after the seeds have fallen. Hellebores can suffer from grey rot or collar rot when growing conditions are poor and excessively wet.
If planting on a balcony or terrace, use pots 4 to 5 times larger than the plant's size. Hellebores are very hardy and can withstand negative temperatures down to -15 °C (5°F) without suffering, making them suitable for almost all areas. Hellebores are easy to care for and can live for many years.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
