'Ashwood Garden Hybrids' are a strain of Helleborus x hybridus, and are regarded as some of the best hellebore hybrids available. There are many cultivars to choose from – all are healthy and robust plants, and produce flowers in a variety of colours and forms. Like all hellebores, Helleborus x hybridus 'Ashwood Garden Hybrids' dislike being moved once established, so should not be divided. Given the right conditions, it will self-seed quite sufficiently to provide replacements.
