Helleborus HGC® Ice N' Roses® Mary Marble Hellebore

Helleborus HGC® Ice N' Roses® Mary Marble brings refined structure and vibrant color to the late winter garden. Part of the Ice N' Roses Gold Collection, this hellebore showcases large, cream-to-pink blooms edged in rich magenta; a picotee pattern that enlivens shaded spaces with understated drama. Standing on tall red stems and framed by evergreen foliage marbled with silver veining, Mary Marble maintains ornamental interest long after its mid-spring bloom period ends.

Well-suited for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and containers, Mary Marble forms a tidy clump about 20 inches high and 24 inches across. Its evergreen leaves offer year-round texture, while the early flowers fill seasonal gaps with much-needed color. Plant alongside early bulbs such as snowdrops (Galanthus) or layer with spring perennials like Heuchera and Carex to create a dynamic, multi-season display that matures gracefully over time.

This hellebore thrives in part to full shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Hardy in USDA Zones 5 to 9, it is deer resistant and, once established, withstands both heat and drought. Low-maintenance and exceptionally long-lived, Ice N' Roses Mary Marble stands out not only for its winter performance but for its lasting role as a dependable foundation in plantings.
