Helleborus × Glandorfensis HGC® Ice N’ Roses® ‘Merlot’ (Hellebore) is a premium winter-flowering perennial from the Helleborus Gold Collection®, admired for its rich merlot-red to dark plum-wine flowers and glossy evergreen foliage. Its outward-facing blooms sit above strong, leathery leaves, creating a beautiful cool-season display for shaded borders, feature pots, entrance planters, and winter garden beds. The official Helleborus Gold Collection describes Merlot as a dark red, richly flowering, fast-growing Ice N’ Roses® variety.

This variety is ideal for customers wanting elegant colour through winter and early spring with very little maintenance. It is more sun-tolerant than many traditional hellebores and performs well in borders, containers, and patio planters when grown in moist, well-drained soil. Australian Plants Online describes Ice N’ Roses® Merlot as robust and vigorous, with rich dark plum-wine flowers held above deep green glossy leaves.
