Broad-leaved helleborine, also known as Broadleaf helleborine, Bastard helleborine, Helleborine
Broad-leaved helleborine is a perennial orchid that generally requires minimal maintenance, suitable for novice gardeners. It thrives in dappled shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Special care points include avoiding waterlogged conditions to prevent root rot, and ensuring adequate winter cold exposure to stimulate flowering. Regular monitoring for slugs and snails is necessary, as they are fond of the leaves.
