Hellebores have a long mystic tradition and are native to Europe, dating back to ancient times when it was an appreciated medicinal plant. Another legend tells a story of a country girl named Madelon. She visits the Christ child in Bethlehem, but is sad for not having a gift to bring him. An angel that sees her sadness, brings her outside and touches the ground. The first Christmas rose arises on the spot touched by the angel. Madelon now has a gift to bring.
Helleborus are available mid November until the end of March from your favorite Wholesaler or Retailer.
