Lily of the Valley


I have never grown one of these before, nor have I ever seen one in person before. This is a special experience indeed. They are smaller and cuter than I imagined. Their fragrance, which I heard so much about, is just as lovely. It is strong like a hyacinth, but tempered with a warm honey note.

Will has a great affinity for this plant. He has jewelry that depicts it, and his Grandmother grew it. He grew up with this plant and has very happy memories of it. Lily of the Valley is truly charming.
