True Love Lenten Rose will steal your heart with its supersized 3-3.5” double red flowers full of intricate detail. Each flower (technically a sepal, but let’s go with flower) is delicately veined and edges in dark burgundy on a field of deep rose, with a central pop of fluffy lime stamens. The many and persistent flowers on True Love are an early sign of spring, attracting and feeding hummingbirds and bees in need of nourishment. The blossoms do well indoors and are often floated dramatically in a bowl to show them to best effect.

True Love is a noble presence, reaching up to 24 inches tall and wide, and loaded with flowers. The evergreen foliage adds bold texture to landscapes and containers year-round. Hellebores are easy-care, resilient plants that give much and ask little, offering a better display every year. They are deer- and rabbit-resistant, and even can tolerate some drought once established in their site after the first two years. True Love comes from the Wedding Party series of helleborus hybrids from noted plantsman Hans Hansen, selected for rich colors, high flower count, and vigor.

Wedding Party® True Love Lenten Rose Care

Give your True Love a spot to grow protected from the hottest afternoon sun, in neutral to alkaline soil, and keep evenly moist, and you will be very happy together. The soil can be mainly clay or sand, but True Love will prefer a loamy organic soil with a nice deep mulch. Hellebores can even grow under large deciduous trees if there is enough space for their roots to roam. As mentioned, wherever you grow your hellebores, you’ll always want to water consistently the first few growing seasons.

Hellebores require very little in the way of fertilizer, so if you can supplement with a handful of compost, or perhaps some cow manure in early spring, that should suit them very well. You can also do one addition of slow-release fertilizer at that time, if desired.

Wedding Party® True Love Lenten Rose Spacing

We recommend allowing about two feet for optimal growth of your True Love Lenten Rose. Proper spacing allows enough room for the roots once the plants mature, and gives enough air circulation between the plants.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
