lily of the valley for 1st May


Lily of the valley aka Les muguets des bois

These little flowers, growing in a shady place at the bottom of our garden, were very early this year. Lily of the valley may look sweet and innocuous but in fact all parts of the plant are poisonous.
So interesting. I never realized lily of the valley were poisonous.

Those little white bells are beautiful, and smell wonderful so, since I'm not planning to eat them, I can live with the poisonous part. :)

I must try & find these in the garden centre as I had some from my mums garden at the old place, sadly they died in the end but now I am a bit keener gardener I might be able to keep them alive. My sister is in France just now & was going to buy some today as is the custom.
