Helleborus ericsmithii Champion 3 QT South Africa Athyrium 'Victoriae' forms an 18"This Heuger hybrid of Helleborus niger and Helleborus x sternii forms a 15" tall x 2' wide clump of dark green foliage topped, starting in February, with stalks of flower buds that begin rosy pink and open creamy white with a nice pink back. I see that the bizarre dual naming trend is alive and well in Germany, so whether you call it 'Champion' or Winter's Bliss hellebore, just call it for your garden.
