Field Notes
Description:
Lenten rose is an evergreen, 15- to 18-inch tall groundcover with leathery, dark-green, shiny foliage. Their new growth generally appears during late January and February, and precedes the 3- to 4-inch nodding, cup-shaped flowers that quickly emerge through the mulch or snow layer.
Habitat:
These roses thrive in gardens.
Notes:
Although its name would lead you to believe otherwise, the Lenten rose is not a rose, but a member of the genus Helleborus.
