Note — The Helleborus niger should be

or tree, receiving the shade during the 
summer months but being in the light 
during the fall and winter months. They 
will thrive in a soil of rich loam, coarse 
sand, some peat moss and a top-dressing 
of well-rotted manure. Prefer a moist, 
but well-drained position. They resent 
being disturbed after having been estab- 
lished.
