            At this moment in time we have winds gusting at 64 mph. Dropping a little by morning but set to continue for another 3 days. Don't think we're having any heatwave.

                  My Echium grown by @ARMANDII (from @shiney 's open day last year) hasn't come through the winter very well, it has lost most of it's leaves but there is new growth and hope:

                    Glad they are doing their stuff for you @JWK. Well done,they can be a bit tricky and don't like root disturbance but you have obviously looked after them:). If I was you I'd be inclined to plant out as is without splitting them up. Likewise your Hellebore are doing well too:dbgrtmb:. Once you get them planted out they will get quite a bit bigger. They don't mind shade either as long as it's not too dry. Photo is of some last year and they are in quite deep shade. With any luck they will self seed, then you only need to wait about 5 years for them to be big enough to flower:rolleyespink:
