A customer sent this photo of her FrostKiss hellebore from Carolyn's Shade Gardens, probably 'Molly's White'. This is one plant, producing all those flowers and the beautifully patterned leaves---ornamental all year round!

Under PA law during COVID-19 our only option for bringing in business has been to deliver plants to our customers in our trusty minivan. Michael and I have delivered over 200 orders to locations from Hockessin DE to Marshallton PA to Boyertown to Bryn Athyn and beyond. We are exhausted, but our customers are happy---one even left us a beautiful sign.

A customer sent this photo of flowers from her Carolyn's Shade Gardens plants: lilacs, blue camassia, Spanish bluebells, and spent hellebore flowers. That's what I like about the dark hellebores---they continue to provide inteerst even when they have gone by.

My son Alex, who owns Practiced Hands Gardening, a landscaping and tree service business, and his girlfriend Marielle have a beautiful garden. I love their use of Japanese hakone grass, Hakonechloa, to edge this bed in front of hellebores, an Itoh peony, herbaceous peonies, and a giant blue hosta.
