Better Late Than Never

Christmas Rose Helleborus niger

Seems to have appeared suddenly in the garden on the path to my studio. A lovely morning surprise.
In the Middle Ages, people strewed the flowers on the floors of their homes to drive out evil influences and blessed their animals with it.
Deer proof.
It is a very toxic plant
