Lily of the Valley
Fragrant White Bells
The Lily of the Valley, 'Convallaria majalis', is a fragrant white Lily-of-the-Valley that is unusual because its dainty bell-shaped flowers are actually double!
Grows to 9" tall.
Each arching stem is weighed down by the profuse blooms it carries.
The fragrant bell shaped flowers are followed by glossy red berries.
Plant in a garden with good air circulation to prevent fungal spots on the petals.
Once it becomes established, Lily of the Valley plant is long-lived and spreads slowly through its rhizomes. This perennial thrives in moist, humus-rich, fertile soil, in sun or full shade. The more sun there is however, the more important it is for the soil to be moist.
A slow but aggressive spreader, Lily of the Valley adds a bit of elegance and charm to shade-prone areas of any landscape!
