I would have posted this in the Hellebore forum...But there isn't one :)

I have what I thought was H. Orientalis but I noticed it's leaves were purple when leafing out in spring (unlike all it's neighbors)... I was trying to figure out what variety it might be but I can't seem to find anything referencing purple new growth on hellebores. Is it so common that no one mentions it? Of the numerous plants I have in the garden only this one (with a solid purple-reddish flower) has this spring coloring on the foliage.

Anyone have any ideas what it might be?

Thanks for your help!!
