Helleborus x sternii 'Hot Flashes' is our seed strain, grown from a Terra Nova clone, Helleborus 'Hot Flash'. We were curious what the offspring would look like and are truly thrilled with the results. Helleborus x sternii 'Hot Flashes' produced plants with consistent silvery foliage but varying in leaf serration and the amount of red pigment in the veins. Honestly, I'd love to keep them all but I'm seriously running out of garden space, so give these a good home. Helleborus x sternii clumps are topped with 18" tall spikes of flowers in midwinter...unless the temperatures drop below the mid-teens, in which case the flowering stalks will burn back and the plants will return from the ground in spring.
