1 THE CHRISTMAS ROSE 
It is HELLEBORUS NI- 
GER, The Christmas Rose 
of story, a fully hardy 
perennial that will bear its 
big blossom cups, white or 
pink-suffused, through late 
winter. It prefers rich soil 
in light shade. Can be 
grown from seeds, “‘yt’’ cul- 
ture, but germination is 
slow, though quite sure. As 
with so many long-lived 
perennials, Helleborus is 
likely to sulk for a year or 
two after being moved, but 
when the time comes, it will 
start growing thriftily. 
Blooming season is apt to 
be March, though in mild 
winters there may be blos- 
soms in January and February. Pkt. 25c; Wg oz. 45c; % oz.
