Description
Hellebores, commonly called Lenten rose, are early-blooming flowers that bloom from February to May., the Eurasian genus Helleborus consists of approximately 20 species of herbaceous or evergreen perennial flowering plants in the buttercup family Ranunculaceae, within which it gave its name to the tribe of Helleboreae. Despite names such as "Winter Rose", "Christmas Rose", and "Lenten Rose", hellebores are not closely related to the rose family (Rosaceae). Many hellebore species are poisonous.
