The Hellebore, known as the Winter Rose, blooms when almost nothing else in the garden will, with flowers that last for weeks. It arrives in a white ceramic pot, ready to brighten a cool windowsill or porch through the colder months.

This is a gift with two seasons. Enjoy the blooms indoors in the winter, then plant it outside in spring, where it will grow into a long-lived perennial that flowers again each winter.

Hellebores are hardy in New England, thrive in shade, and are rarely bothered by deer, which makes them a favorite of experienced gardeners and a rewarding start for new ones.

Why it’s a gift for the garden lover

• Blooms in winter, when the garden is otherwise quiet

• Plant it outdoors in spring to enjoy it year after year

• Shade-loving, cold-hardy, and deer-resistant

• Works for holiday gifts, hostess gifts, birthdays, and thank-yous

Care at a glance

• Indoors: Keep in a cool, bright spot away from heaters; warm rooms shorten the bloom

• Water: Keep the soil evenly moist, not soggy

• Outdoors: Plant in spring in part to full shade with well-drained soil

• Difficulty: Easy
