We advise cultivating the The Black hellebore outdoors, since it doesn't fear cold temperatures. These plants lose the aerial part during the coldest months of the year. As spring begins, stems and leaves quickly start to reproduce.Locate this plant in a partially shady place, where it can take in the solar rays during the coolest hours of the day.

Cultivation Black hellebore
The Black hellebore is a perennial herb plant. The Black hellebore is small in size and 30 cm in height; in the winter it assumes a pinkwhite colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal.

Fertilize Black hellebore
We suggest adding to the irrigation water, in the spring, every 20-25 days, a specific fertilizer for flowering plants. We can also mix to the soil near the plants a granular slow release fertilizer, which has a 3-4 month action.

Water Black helleboreTenere asciutto
Water sporadically, with 2-3 glasses of water , leaving the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when watering we suggest avoiding excesses, but to wet the substratum well. Let's act every 1-2 weeks . Perennial plants are subject to some months of vegetational rest. During these months it isn't necessary to water them.

Pests Black hellebore
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Mold Black hellebore
We suggest a substratum characterized by an excellent drainage.
