Perfect for adding colour to shady gardens, this lenten rose features large, double yellow blooms that measure 5-6cm (2in) across. Each flower is edged with a maroon picotee and lightly veined in a contrasting shade, creating a striking, long-lasting visual display that blooms during the Christian season of Lent.

Helleborus × hybridus 'First Dance' thrives in moist, woodland areas, naturally spreading through its extensive root system. It’s a versatile choice for areas of dappled shade beneath deciduous trees and shrubs, adding year-round interest.

The plant’s sturdy stems hold the nodding flowers above a backdrop of glossy, dark green, evergreen foliage. Additionally, it's deer-resistant, making it a great option for garden spaces where browsing animals are a concern.
