Green False Hellebore: A Unique Addition to Wildlife Gardens
It is day 21 of Gardening for Wildlife Month! Green false hellebore (Veratrum viride) is a striking perennial that thrives in moist, shaded environments. While its tall, leafy stalks and greenish flowers add visual interest to woodland gardens, it is important to note that all parts of the plant are highly toxic if ingested. Despite its toxicity, green false hellebore plays a role in supporting biodiversity by providing shelter for small wildlife and contributing to the ecological balance of wetland habitats. During Gardening for Wildlife Month, incorporating native plants like green false hellebore can help create a thriving ecosystem while maintaining awareness of its potential hazards.

Very cool! Nice post!
