Corsican Hellebore is a sturdy species, with clusters of apple-green flowers that appear in late winter and early spring. This terrific selection has leathery light-green foliage, heavily flecked with creamy white, remaining evergreen. Best with morning sun and afternoon shade. Performs best in regions with a mild maritime climate. Gardeners in colder climates would be wise to mulch around the base of the clump with leaves in very late fall.
