Larger, taller version of a late-winter classic!
This breakthrough beauty is the result of over 50 years of breeding work by our friends at van der Meijs Nursery in Germany. Part of Breck's new series of king-size hellebores, Searchlight grows up to 70 cm tall with huge blooms up to 10 cm across! Like traditional hellebores, Wow! varieties are among the earliest perennials to flower, so next year, you'll likely enjoy these big, buttery blooms before spring even begins. Helleborus orientalis
