It's hardy down to zero C or just below grindle. I left one out all winter a number of years ago and it died, so I bring this one into shelter now just to be on the safe side.
The temperature in my greenhouse must have been below freezing several nights this winter but it's surviving in there. It would not have survived the two big freezes we've had this December and January if it was outside.
It is in a big tub so I have to slide it along slowly, and make sure it isn't too far from the greenhouse so that I can easily slide it back in next winter.

I'll have to scout around and see what I can find Eli

just a couple of photos, not much around, plenty of new growth and buds, the Hamemalis isn't exactly a spectacular one, with quite small flowers

this is the only Hellebore in flower at the moment, most are still in bud

I used to have that at our old house, it was very pretty & lovely colour but not as spectacular as some of the others.
