Hellebores

We are moving home soon, from Somerset to Oxfordshire, and we are taking several of our prized and loved hellebores with us.  We've dug them up and put them in pots ready to travel, but wonder if we can now cut them back?  They are still in flower and with plenty of new leaf growing, so would it be safe to cut them back prior to travelling in the next five weeks?

    You could cut the flowers off but I wouldn't cut back the leaves.

    Thanks nutcutlet.  Looks like that's the only suggestion. image
