Hellebore

Finally these little beauties are blooming - other gardens seem to have had theirs for quite some time, but mine are obviously waiting for better weather.  I just love this double headed flower - definitely one of my favourites of the hellebore varieties.
Managed to get to the pool today and enjoy a slow paddle up and down in the relatively warm water. Good to see the gang after 4 weeks, and catch up on the news.
