Lily of the Valley
Convallaria majalis
My girlfriend, Brenda, introduced me to this plant about 16 years ago. She brought these stems with bell-shaped flowers to my house in the cutest miniature vase. They saturated my whole house with a fragrance that was out of this world! She gave me some transplants and they have been spreading ever since. I love to add them to mini arrangements.
Lily of the Valley is said to symbolize the return of happiness. Named for its native habitat (the Latin word "convallis" means enclosed valley).
