We give tips for the perfect location for your Christmas roses in the garden. The Christmas rose ( <em>Helleborus niger<\/em> ), also known as black hellebore, is one of the most robust garden plants. The Austrian name &#8220;snow rose&#8221; indicates that this plant can cope very well even with difficult conditions.<\/p>\n<p>This is unusual because the Christmas rose originally comes from Southeast Asia. Today, however, it is widespread in the German-speaking region as well as in Slovenia, Croatia, and northern Italy, where it inhabits bushy, light forests. You can easily imitate these natural site conditions in your own garden so that your Christmas rose thrives and it lacks nothing. What you should consider when choosing a location for your Christmas rose and the best way to go about planting are explained below.<\/p>\n<h2>The perfect location for Christmas roses<\/h2>\n<p>Basically, your Christmas rose must have enough space in the garden so that it can develop undisturbed. Because when they feel good, Christmas roses like to spread out into large groups of plants. Partly to shady locations with nutrient-rich, permeable humus soil are ideal for Christmas roses. They also prefer calcareous soils. If the pH value is too low, it can happen that the flower does not flower.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HyfBydyp-KQ\" width=\"760\" height=\"515\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Sheltered places in partial shade under trees are ideal. In this way, the plant can enjoy the gentle rays of the winter sun in the cold winter months, but in summer it is protected from excessive heat. Make sure that the soil does not dry out and water regularly even in winter. Waterlogging is to be avoided at all costs. If the conditions are right, Christmas roses are extremely long-lived and can reach an age of up to 30 years.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15292\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Christmas-roses-feel-particularly-at-home-in-a-partially-shaded-place-under-trees.jpg\" alt=\"Christmas roses feel particularly at home in a partially shaded place under trees\" width=\"750\" height=\"498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Christmas-roses-feel-particularly-at-home-in-a-partially-shaded-place-under-trees.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Christmas-roses-feel-particularly-at-home-in-a-partially-shaded-place-under-trees-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you have been given a Christmas rose as a potted plant and would like to cultivate it indoors, it is best to place it in a light spot on the windowsill. However, the optimal average temperature should not be above 15 \u00b0 C, because the Christmas rose usually does not feel comfortable in a heated living room. After the flowering period, you can move the potted plant to a shady spot in the garden.<\/p>\n<h2>How to plant Christmas roses<\/h2>\n<p>Once you have chosen the right location for your Christmas rose, you should put the newly purchased plant in its destination as soon as possible.
