Convallaria majalis ‘Rosea’
Convallaria majalis 'Rosea' is a lily-of-the-valley with pale pink, waxy, fragrant, bell-shaped flowers.
Convallaria majalis ‘Rosea’ is an uncommon cultivar with pale pink (rather than white), waxy, fragrant, bell-shaped flowers. The foliage is upright and elliptic. Lily-of-the-Valley’s spreading habit makes it a useful groundcover under deciduous trees or in areas with partial sun or shade. The fragrance is one of those classics for spring.
