Description
Hellebore HGC Ice N' Roses Picotee is the latest addition to the excellent series of Ice N' Roses hellebores. This particularly robust hybrid combines all the qualities of its ancestors, including Mediterranean hellebores (from Corsica and the Balearic Islands), Christmas rose (H. niger), and Lenten rose (H. orientalis). The result is a plant that is very resistant to cold, heat, and soils which are dry in summer, with a very long flowering period of beautifully coloured large flowers between December and April. This Picotee variety produces a quantity of large white-pink flowers striped and speckled with a deeper shade of pink. This hellebore will live for many years in the garden, in all climates.
Hellebores belong to the buttercup family. Helleborus Ice N' Roses is a complex horticultural hybrid from a series of Christmas roses developed in Germany after many years of research and selective breeding. The flowers of Ice N' Roses hellebores come in 4 colours: red, pink, white, and white-pink with rose picotee.
Ice N' Roses Picotee is a strong perennial plant with remarkable longevity, fairly rapid growth, and vigorous vegetation, but it is sterile. Reproduction is difficult and only possible through division. It has a bushy habit, reaching a minimum height of 30cm (12in) and a spread of 50cm (20in) when mature. From December to March-April, short brownish stems appear carrying pink buds that open into 5-petaled white and rose-purple flowers, 6-7cm (2-3in) wide, with beautiful yellow stamens in their centre. The evergreen foliage is composed of rather tough, satin dark green leaves, 10 to 30cm (4 to 12in) long, borne on brownish petioles, divided into 5 to 7 oval or lanceolate segments with strong toothed edges. This Hellebore is hardy down to -20°C (-4°F) and tolerates a wide range of soils, limestone or clayey, humiferous or sandy, constantly moist or even dry in summer.
This new hellebore should thrive in all our gardens. It has many flowers even in its first year. New flowers constantly form, creating a beautiful contrast between the open flowers and the faded ones. These flowers make good cut flowers. It is also a good ground cover for shaded areas. Use hellebores like elements of an old tapestry, mixing them with brightly coloured woodland plants. They are showcased when planted near medium-sized evergreen bushes and under conifers (especially on windy sites). Surround them with primroses, wood anemones, corydalis, bleeding hearts, cardamines, or spring-flowering bulbs and snowdrops. You can also plant them with ferns and shade-loving irises to create a beautiful contrast a little later in the season. They can be planted in groups near the entrance of the house, in a shaded position, to enjoy their early flowering up close. They are suitable for borders, flower beds, and containers... Over time, the flowers of the Hellebore do not wilt like the majority of other flowers but dry up instead.

Planting and care
HGC Ice N' Roses Hellebores are not very demanding of the type of soil and tolerate limestone and fairly dry soils in summer, as well as clayey and moist soils. However, it prefers rich, rather heavy and well-worked soils. Plant it in partial shade in fertile soil, enriched with leaf compost and kept moist to help it establish. Incorporate good compost at planting. Hellebore does not like stagnant water, which can cause its roots to rot. Planting it under the clear shade of large leafy trees is perfect. These are easy-to-live-with plants, but they should not be stressed or disturbed. Once well established, they do not like to be transplanted. Young plants can take 2 to 3 years or more to flower. Over the weeks, their colour darkens but they do not wilt like most flowers, they dry up instead.
On a balcony or terrace, plant them in pots 4 to 5 times larger than them, as they need space to develop their root system. Most hellebores can withstand temperatures down to -15°C (5°F) without suffering, allowing them to adapt to almost all regions.

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).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
