Helleborus Gold Collection® Ice Breaker Ruby is an exceptional evergreen perennial celebrated for its early blooming and long-lasting flowers. Belonging to the Ranunculaceae family, Ice Breaker Ruby features large, outward-facing, deep plum-purple flowers with a contrasting large gold centre. Flowering in late winter to early spring, the helleborous is a beacon of colour in colder months. The leathery, dark green foliage adds to its year-round appeal. Apply a balanced slow-release fertiliser in early spring and autumn to encourage strong growth and flowering. Remove any damaged or old foliage in late winter before new growth emerges to keep the plant looking tidy and healthy. Deadheading spent flowers can prolong the blooming period. With its compact growth habit and adaptability to partial shade, Ice Breaker Ruby is a valuable addition to shade gardens and winter landscapes.
