•CHRISTMAS ROSE ( Heleborus Niger). 6 to 12 inches. October to March. 
This interesting pink and white plant really produces its flowers in the winter, out of doors. 
Daintily colored begonia-like blooms almost hidden in a clump of glossy evergreen leaves. It 
is best to select a place for this plant which is sheltered from the winds in winter and 
where it can remain for years undisturbed. With a light, temporary frame placed over 
the plants so as to protect from the snow and ice, the 
blooms develop far more freely and perfectly.
