Tips for Growing Beautiful Hellebores

Hellebores prefer partial shade and well-draining soil rich in organic matter. To improve growth, incorporate compost or well-rotted manure into the soil. Water hellebores regularly, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer. Remove any damaged or yellowing leaves to encourage healthier growth. Inspect for pests such as aphids and slugs. Use neem oil or insecticidal soap for organic pest control.
