Definition
A poisonous plant of the buttercup family with dark green leaves and white, pink, or purple flowers.
Etymology
From Greek 'helleboros,' possibly combining 'hele' (to injure) and 'bora' (food), or from the Greek underworld connection, as it was used in ancient times.
Kelly Says
Hellebores were actually used as a purgative in ancient medicine—people believed they could cure madness and melancholy, though they're dangerously toxic!
