Succumbed to ET Hellebores and ordered seed

Well....looks like I just decided to grow some hellebores from seed. I'm sure it's going to be hard to wait 2-3 years to see the first flowerings of these babies. My choices were:
H. niger macrantha and three H x orientalis hybrid groups (ET strain, Picotee, and Dark Strain).

Congratulations! It does take a little patience, but that is one of the most exciting aspects of these plants. And, if you sow some each year, your first three year wait will be your last 'cause you'll see new blooms each year thereafter.

How could you resist ordering, especially now that the web site has pictures to tempt us. I also went a bit crazy but they were just so beautiful! Good luck, it sure makes your winter exciting as you pamper your seeds and wait for them to sprout.
