This is perfectly normal for them, we have young plants at work and you can see at all times of the year there will be flowers.

I have not experienced when they will next bloom, however, a good mulch after flowering should help to prepare them!!!

Hi Keith, Just read your post as it was in the latest newsletter. Just wanted you to know that I also have a hellebore flowering at the moment. I have no idea why I'm afraid. Kate
