Moroznik - general description
Moroznik is an herbaceous plant in the ranunculaceae family. As a rule, perennial. It is divided into two types: species with stems on which the leaves are located, and stemless species with basal foliage. The first type is characterized by the formation of a flower from a large bud located at the top of the leafy shoot; the second type of hellebore implies the development of flowers on low pedicels that ripen in the center of the root leafy rosette.
Flowers are usually large, expressive. The head consists of five or more (depending on the variety) petals of a correctly-pointed shape and various colors - from plain to colorful. The flowering phase begins in early spring. It should also be noted that hellebore is a dangerous poisonous plant, especially its rhizomes.
Moroznik - types and places of growth
The genus consists of only 15 species, distributed mainly in Europe, the Caucasus and the Balkans. Only a few varieties, which are concentrated mainly in the middle lane of our country, can withstand the Russian climate.
From Germany to Yugoslavia stretches the most beautiful, popular and evergreen species - black hellebore, which has great medicinal value. It lives in mountain forests. It is characterized by very large flowers (up to 10 cm in diameter), which have a snow-white color and a pink speck in the center.
A plant with whitish or yellow-green petals is attributed to the Caucasian hellebore, which lives throughout the Caucasus, as well as in Turkey and Greece. In Abkhazia, you can meet another beautiful species - Abkhazian hellebore, which has rather large pink-purple flowers. In Southern Europe, there are three species that are similar to each other: hellebore green, scented hellebore and shrubbery.
In the middle zone of the Russian Federation one can see planted specimens of Caucasian, Abkhazian hellebore, as well as a number of decorative garden forms, combined into one group - hybrid hellebore. To exist in harsh conditions, the plant must be provided with clay soil rich in fertilizers and regular watering.
