Why Are My Hellebores Drooping?

I feel like they are droopy immediately after they bloom (I know it’s normal for them to droop after a while). This year and last they did this. I know barely anything about them, and the previous owner of the house planted them- not sure when. We’ve had a very warm and wet winter. They bloomed this year about 3-4 weeks ago.

As you mentioned, some droopiness is normal for these plants. If your soil is well-draining and your plants are getting plenty of water, you may want to examine them for other problems. It sounds as though they are healthy and blooming, and they are probably fine. But, check to be sure they aren't sitting in pooled water, and use this article to check for other possible problems:
