In February, this tall red hellebore was just showing its first few buds.

In March, this tall red hellebore finally bloomed. Its red petals tended toward the purple.

One of the tall red hellebore blooms leaned over due to a recent heavy rain.

Our tall red hellebore plant was still in full bloom in late April. New leaves had almost hidden the flowers. The ground around this hellebore was dusted with flower petals off an overhead tree.
