Growing Information for Optimal Bloom:

  • Soil: The HONEYMOON® New York Night hellebore prefers rich, well-drained, and slightly acidic soil. It also tolerates neutral soils.
  • Light: This perennial thrives in shade or partial shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the foliage.
  • Watering: Regular watering is important, especially during dry periods. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
  • Fertilization: Apply a balanced organic fertilizer in spring or fall to promote abundant blooms.
  • Division: Dividing the plant every 3 to 5 years helps keep it healthy and encourages continued blooming.
