Sitting patiently. Quietly waiting. In the rain.

Lovely, lots of beautiful flowers just waiting to open.
Exciting time. I love that hellebores bloom for such a long time too.
I adore hellebores but they’re reluctant bloomers here. Most don’t show up until spring – whether that’s due to the particular cultivars I’ve planted or the fact that they’re waiting for more rain, I don’t know. I look forward to seeing yours in future vases.
I’ve occasionally had hellebores open in December but not this year, despite fairly warm days. We’ve had a lot of rain recently. Wish I could share some with you.
I wish Hellebores were easier to see and photograph because they are truly lovely. Also, I LOVE your header.
It’s true, they don’t make it easier to photograph. I haven’t trimmed back the old leaves yet, which I know is recommended but it seems weird to leave the buds so exposed. Thanks for noticing the header. Just updated it today with a photographed modified using an app called Waterlogue. So much fun to play with.
That is a neat header, like watercolor. Flowers soon.
Thanks. New header created with Waterlogue app. Quite fun and mesmerizing to play with.
Oh, gosh, now that’s truly exciting and beautiful! I need to check my Hellebores again. It would be way too early for them here, but the buds are so pretty even at earlier stages. Enjoy!
Hope you find a few hellebores peeking out. Mine seem very late but I think I’m also just anxious for them to start.
Wow, I should go take a look at my Hellebores. I wonder if they have buds like that.
Your hellebores may be not be eager to come out in the snow. One year I had hellebores open in December but January is often likely. It’s unseasonably warm here this year and wet, wet, wet.
