{hellebore} me not

There are some tiny ballerina visitors in my garden...shhhh...they're shy.






You have to lift up their chins with delicate fingers to see their beautiful faces.







They come and dance for me in time for my birthday each year, which is pretty nice of them because February birthdays can be grey with not much dancing to be seen.




Happily these little pretties have a lot of stamina and will keep on dancing for me for a good few weeks yet.




Hellebores boring?  To me they are exquisite.
