Convallaria

Convallaria majalis – timeless beauty for woodland edges and borders

Convallaria majalis is a low, rhizoma-forming perennial with broad leaves and white, fragrant flowers on arching stems. It is ideal for natural and informal gardens and comes into its own in partial shade or shade, for example under trees or shrubs.

It usually flowers in May, hence the Dutch name ‘meiklokje’. After flowering, red berries form (poisonous), while the foliage remains decorative until summer. Convallaria propagates via underground rhizomes, which makes it suitable for naturalizing and ground cover.

Application:

• Underplanting in woodland edges, shady borders

• Naturalizing in natural gardens

• Fragrant accents in spring gardens

• Cut flowers for bouquets, bridal work and symbolic applications
