Hellebore season is underway!

It's been nice weather up until the next three days here in North Carolina where it will be in the teens or low 20s. I walked around and photographed what is blooming. The hellebores are just getting started here. Looking forward to more to open soon.   Swirling Skirts!  This one is so round!  Above and below are the same flower.  Merlin Helleborus foetidus
