Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the hybrid species Helleborus × iburgensis, obtained as a result of complex cross-breeding. The plant forms a dense bush 30–35 cm tall with dark green leaves having a silvery-white or yellowish marbled coloration along the veins.

Large flowers with a diameter of about 6 cm have a dark red color with dark speckling. They are located on stiff peduncles and are oriented upward or forward. The variety is early-flowering, with the flowering period usually beginning in late January – February.

The plant possesses good winter hardiness and is suitable for cultivation in the garden, on balconies, and terraces. A characteristic feature of the variety is the inability to set seeds. The plant is toxic if ingested, and contact with the sap may cause skin irritation.
