Lily-of-the-Valley

Rampant if it likes you. I've had to contain mine in a bucket.

I'm afraid this was already here when we moved in Sue and yes it's moving throughout the border among all the plants Grrrrr ..

I love them, ours is just starting to move!! will keep my eye on it..

Oh Amy I am so envious. I've tried several tiems to grow these without any success.

What a shame Waddy ,perhaps it all to do with the soil its very sandy here ..

I've even tried in pots. :-((

Waddy ours took years to flower!!

Oh well DD maybe I need to be more patient!

Waddy I agree with Dd it took years to grow a patch in our previous garden ...

Duly noted ladies. I will try again lol!

I have what I believe to be a pile of rubble that must have contained corms from an excavation to install a septic bed. They left the rubble in a pile near the edge of the forest and you should see it now... lily of the valley, like quills on a porcupine, coming up and soon to bloom. the scent is just delightful. I've found several plants that travel... LOTV and Mints, and creeping jenny...etc.. that I wanted in a specific location were only happy to remain there for a couple of seasons and then it took off across the yard... following it's nose to a better spot perhaps...but moving with a purpose..away from where I want it. In the city garden I would have had to rip it out...but I have so much room here that I've just let it go! I may regret it.
