Helleborus Tutu 3 Litre

Helleborus 'Tutu' is a graceful and eye-catching perennial that brings soft colour and structure to shady corners just when the garden needs it most. Flowering from late winter into early spring, its semi-double, anemone-style blooms feature pale pink petals speckled with darker tones, surrounding a ruffled crown of creamy stamens. As the flowers mature, they gently fade to soft blush tones, adding depth and charm to the display.

This clump-forming plant has leathery, glossy green foliage that remains attractive throughout the year. It thrives in moisture-retentive, humus-rich soil that drains well, and prefers dappled shade with shelter from cold winds. A layer of mulch in autumn helps keep roots happy and encourages strong flowering. Once established, it’s reliably hardy and low-maintenance—just remove old leaves in winter to keep the plant looking fresh and reduce the risk of leaf spot.

'Tutu' is also a favourite with early pollinators and makes a lovely addition to woodland borders, underplanting schemes, or shaded containers.
