Winter Jewels® will have a new home at Little Prince of Oregon
We are very excited to announce that the Winter Jewels® hellebore program is being taken over by Little Prince of Oregon. We are so excited because we are convinced that they will continue, and even improve, the quality that we have worked so hard to achieve in over 30 years of working with Helleborus ×hybridus. They are the first nursery that we have worked with that truly understands the dedication to meticulous detail that it took and will take going forward to preserve and improve the legacy breeding program that we have developed.
This is what Little Prince of Oregon has to say about their acquisition:
“Little Prince of Oregon Nursery is honored that Ernie and Marietta deem us worthy to carry on the legacy of the Winter Jewels® Hellebores. We recognize that their diligent and patient work over many decades has created the most beautiful and desirable hellebore hybrids found anywhere in horticulture. With The O’Byrne’s continued guidance, we will carry on with the refinement and improvement of each variety, and hopefully over time even develop new varieties to add to the collection. We also plan to continue the annual tradition of a plant sale in the early Spring each year. Please follow our social media on Facebook or Instagram, and subscribe to our newsletter on our website for details about the hellebore sale dates for 2024.”
