Helleborus niger ‘HGC Jacob’ is the latest selection from Germany’s Heuger Hellebores, who seem to have gone a bit over the edge in introducing selections of Helleborus niger…all very nice, but do we really need a dozen different helleborus niger selections? This compact, early-flowering clonal selection starts flowering in November and continues into January. The 1′ tall x 1′ wide clump of glossy, dark green, deer-resistant foliage is adorned with an abundance of large, pure white flowers.
