Little guys? These are young plants then?

I don't know when planted, but hellebores have a fairly extensive root system quite young. I would think mulch for winter, make sure they have had some water going into cold weather if you haven't had rain, and hope for the best.

If too young to flower, when new growth resumes late winter you may want to remove this year foliage if the oriental hybrid types...
