Sweet flower of spring
Article Abstract:
Gardeners love lilies-of-the-valley for their fragrant spring flowers and lush green foliage that provides ground cover in summer. They are best combined with other fine-textured, shade-loving plants such as ferns, owing to the contrast they provide. They thrive in rich, organic soil and plenty of moisture.

Kissed by fire
