DESCRIPTION
Convallaria majalis, commonly known as Lily-of-the-Valley, is a graceful and fragrant perennial plant valued for its delicate bell-shaped flowers and spreading habit. Native to Europe, Asia, and North America, it belongs to the Asparagaceae family and is popular in gardens for its sweet fragrance and dainty appearance. Blooming in late spring to early summer, its highly fragrant, small white flowers appear in clusters at the tips of slender, arching stems above attractive foliage. Following the blooms, small red berries attract birds but are toxic to humans and pets if ingested. Thriving in shaded or partially shaded areas with moist, well-draining soil rich in organic matter, it is often used as a ground cover in woodland gardens and shaded borders. Convallaria majalis is low-maintenance, resistant to pests and diseases, and does not require much pruning, making it a reliable and beautiful garden addition.
