An absolutely magical and long-lived Helleborus selection for your shade garden, the long-lasting, outward-facing flowers of 'Merlin' begin opening in February a medium pink shade gradually intensifying in color over the flowering season ending up a truly indescribable deep dusky cranberry-pink. A sturdy hybrid bred in Germany by Josef Heuger, Merlin offers the same leathery dark green leaves and loads of buds and blooms as others in the Helleborus Gold Collection.
