Convallaria majalis 'Prolificans'
lily-of-the-valley
Branching stems bear double-white tight clusters of pendent, rounded blooms on this most enchanting May-time visitor. Perfect for naturalising in a woodland garden setting, or simply beneath a border with a deciduous canopy, 'Prolificans' is a showy variety of the ever popular lily of the valley, whose perfumed flowers last long after being cut and make wonderful additions to either a hand-tied posy or a vase.
