What a novelty! A plant in your landscape that blooms at the onset of winter! 'Jacob' is just such a plant and you will fall in love with the uniqueness and the added garden thrill this member of the Gold Collection® of Hellebores developed in Europe will bring you. Its deep green foliage forms a tight, leathery, evergreen mound that sees stems with buds rise above in early November. These flower stems themselves are quite decorative with deep red color that contrasts well with the foliage and with the flowers themselves that will open in late November with a snow white color that will melt your heart. Flowers will last until mid-January. Plant 'Jacob' in a protected, semi-shaded landscape spot with exceptional drainage and enjoy the holiday show that will become as much a part of your season as Christmas Cactus and Poinsettias!
