watering

The best way to water Hellebore is to keep them evenly moist throughout the growing season. During the spring and summer, plants should be watered every couple of days with enough water to reach the roots. The soil should not be soggy and should not be allowed to dry out completely. In the fall and winter, the frequency of watering can be reduced to once a week and the amount of water should be reduced to prevent root rot. It is especially important to monitor the amount of water during the dark, cooler months. If the soil is dry and the leaves are wilting, then it needs to be watered.

sunlight

Hellebore (Helleborus (Painted Strain) WINTER JEWELS) prefer bright, indirect light and thrive in partial shade with 3 to 4 hours of direct sunlight a day in the winter months. If the plant does not receive enough sunlight, it may suffer from leaf burn, slow growth, and weak blooms. During the summer months, try to keep your plants in a bright, shaded area, avoiding full-sun exposure that could eventually be damaging.

pruning

Hellebore (Helleborus (Painted Strain) WINTER JEWELS) require minimal pruning. Prune the stems just before new growth appears, usually in late winter or early spring. Start by first cutting away dead leaves and stems from around the base. You can then snip off any dead leaves and stems from the upper foliage. This should be done with clean, sharp pruning shears. Keep in mind that you want to keep as much of the foliage intact as possible, as it can help to protect the plant from frost damage in the cooler months.
