Helleborus foetidus
is called more commonly Stinking Hellebore, Dungwort and Bear’s Foot. It has
black-green and fine-fingered leaves throughout the year and in winter grows
bell shaped flowers that can have a number of shades of colour but are
generally green. The flowers can smell sweet despite its common name of
stinking hellebore. Stinking hellebore shouldn’t be consumed as it is a
poisonous plant.
Stinking hellebore is a hardy plant that prefers clay soils
that are fertile, moist and well-drained, growing in either full sun or partial
shade.
