A truly exquisite and much sought-after Lenten Rose, 'Double Ellen Yellow Spotted' is a winter and early spring treasure. It produces beautiful, large, nodding or outward-facing, fully double flowers. The blooms are composed of multiple layers of ruffled petals in a gorgeous shade of creamy, primrose-yellow.

An outstanding evergreen ground cover perennial, Barren Strawberry is a tough, reliable, and incredibly useful garden plant. It forms a dense, weed-suppressing mat of attractive, strawberry-like leaves that are divided into three glossy, dark green leaflets. This handsome foliage remains lush and green throughout the year, often taking on attractive bronze tints in cold weather. In mid to late spring, the foliage is studded with a profusion of bright, cheerful, buttercup-yellow, five-petalled flowers. While it looks like a strawberry plant, it does not produce edible fruit, hence its common name. It is an exceptionally low-maintenance and versatile plant, perfect for carpeting the ground in difficult areas, such as dry shade under trees, or for covering sunny banks.

A pristine and elegant member of the acclaimed 'Double Ellen' series, this Hellebore is a beacon of light in the late winter garden. It produces beautiful, large, fully double flowers of the purest, snow-white. Each perfect, cup-shaped bloom is packed with layers of silky petals, creating a magnificent, ruffled, rose-like effect that is simply breathtaking. The flowers nod gracefully on strong, upright stems above a handsome clump of leathery, deep green, evergreen foliage. 'Double Ellen White' is a sophisticated and reliable choice for illuminating a shady border or woodland garden, providing clean, classic colour when little else is in bloom. Like all hellebores, it is a vital early food source for emerging queen bumblebees, making it as valuable for wildlife as it is for its serene beauty.

A particularly enchanting and detailed Hellebore, 'Double Ellen Pink Spotted' offers intricate beauty for the late winter garden. Like its siblings in the 'Double Ellen' series, it produces large, gorgeous, fully double flowers that nod gracefully from strong stems. The base colour of the ruffled, layered petals is a soft, creamy pink. Each petal is then exquisitely decorated with a fine freckling of deep, magenta-purple spots, with the spotting often being more concentrated towards the centre of the bloom. This creates a wonderfully detailed and captivating effect. The leathery, dark green foliage is evergreen, providing a handsome backdrop for the flowers and year-round garden presence. This variety is perfect for a special spot in a shady border or a container where its unique, speckled beauty can be admired up close.

A truly sophisticated and beautiful Lenten Rose, 'Double Ellen Green' is prized for its unique and elegant flowers. In late winter and early spring, it produces large, exquisite, fully double blooms. The flowers are composed of many layers of ruffled petals in a gorgeous shade of fresh, chartreuse or lime-green. Some flowers may have subtle, deeper green veining or a fine picotee edge of reddish-purple, adding to their complexity and charm. The nodding or outward-facing blooms are held on strong stems above handsome clumps of leathery, evergreen foliage. It brings a cool, refined elegance to the shady garden at a time when colour is scarce and provides a vital nectar source for early-pollinating insects. A must-have for any hellebore enthusiast or woodland garden.
