Helleborus orientalis Hygge™ Kristoff
Pure white with raspberry speckles.
Introducing the Hygge™ Series. We are proud to be featuring our first Het Wilgenbroek Helleborous orientalis selections from tissue culture. What does that mean? That means no more seed strains, and irregular germination or flower patterns. Each and every plant will look like the picture and that is super exciting. And why Hygge? Well, each fall, these plants set flower buds that will sleep until they emerge on the first sunny, warm winter day. Until they emerge, they are tucked into the plant, and often covered by snow, nice a cozy. Hygge is the Swedish word for staying cozy and warm during the Nordic winters. A strong, vigorous selection, Kristoff is pure white with an overlay of raspberry speckles. Kristoff grows quickly and flowers earlier, often beginning in November each year.
