Convallari magalis-Lily-of-the-Valley, Jacob’s Ladder, Ladder-to-Heaven

Propagating Lily-of-the-Valley is easy to transplant because its spread by rhizomes, the easiest type of plant to propagate, just make certain there are plenty of roots for a successful transplanting, but can become invasive if left unchecked. The standard blooms are white and fragrant, but a different variety has been introduced that is pink and they flower in May and are best transplanted in the fall into partial shade in a well drained humus soil, either alkaline or acidic, that retains moisture and the plant can reach a height of 12".
