To answer the quest...Thanks for all your comments!<br /><br />To answer the question about the Hellebores foliage - The newest leaves just under the buds have a light reddish tint to the undersides, but the leaves turn completely green as they grow larger. The way the light is shining in the photo, it highlights the leaf veins and magnifies the immature leaf color.<br />Have a great day!<br />LeaLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201714466868118083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1749996258947137504.post-11851588030834085882012-01-24T21:01:39.486-06:002012-01-24T21:01:39.486-06:00Woof Lea!
