Finally, lots of flowers appeared quite late on the remaining plant—the other one was stolen at the cemetery along with the container and other plants!

Description
The Helleborus nigercors 'Magic Leaves' is a very beautiful hybrid with evergreen foliage, marbled green and white.
This perennial is the result of cross-breeding between Helleborus niger (Christmas Rose) and Helleborus argutifolius (Corsican Hellebore). From December to March, large flowers with white corollas striped with cream appear, fading to shades of purple, measuring 7 to 10 cm (3 to 4in) in diameter. The Hellebore has a bushy habit. This Hellebore is hardy down to -20°C (1°F). It has winter interest.
It is a robust plant, not too tall (30 cm (12in) in height) with very pretty dark green foliage that is evergreen and quite tough. Its basal and palmatilobate leaves (palmate leaves with slightly incised lobes) measure 10 to 30 cm (4 to 12in) in length. The foliage is evergreen. One of its main assets is its long and exuberant flowering. From the first year, more than twenty flowers already appear on the plants. New flowers continually form, providing a beautiful contrast between the blooming flowers and the faded ones.
It is perfect as a cut flower. It also provides good ground cover. It pairs well with ferns or with Iris foetidissima, lamium maculatum 'Beacon Silver' and Erythronium. It is a toxic flower. It is a sterile hybrid, and its multiplication is very difficult through vegetative propagation.

Planting and care
The Hellébore nigercors 'Magic Leaves' likes rich, rather heavy and worked soils. Plant it in partial clear shade in neutral to alkaline, fertile soil that is humus-bearing and moist, and incorporate good compost to help it establish. The Hellebore does not like stagnant water as it may cause it to rot. Planting it under the clear shade of large leafy trees is ideal. These are easy-going plants but should not be stressed. These perennials also have a reputation for being homebodies: once well established, they do not like to be transplanted. Young plants may take 2 to 3 years or even longer to flower, but afterwards, there will be no more problems. Over the weeks, their color darkens but they do not wilt like most flowers, instead they dry out.

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.
