Lily of the Valley

Convallaria majalis Perennial grown from pip (upright small rootstock). Small, fragrant, drooping, waxy white, bell-shaped, spring blooming flowers on 6-8 inch stems rising above 2 broad basal leaves. Ground cover in partial shade. All parts of the plant are poisonous. Bernice planted these in the small area next to the garage. Eventually they will take over that entire area. When Paul was courting Bernice he would bring her bouquets from his house in Berkeley, California.
