Lily of the Valley is one of the most common of old-fashioned perennials, and a favourite for growing as a groundcover in shady areas. . Takes a year or two to establish, then spreads quickly. May go dormant in summer. Tolerant of poor soils, even dry shade, but prefers a rich, moist soil.
Like any ground-cover Lily of the Valley needs to be edited carefully once it has filled a space. We have seen it grow through asphalt in the quest to take over the world.
Convallaria is toxic to humans and animals if eaten.
All photos taken at our nursery. Inclusion here does not always mean we have in stock.
