Lily of the Valley
Convallaria majalis
This plant died!
I purposely smothered these with cardboard in late 2021/early 2022. They were spreading too far and only looked good in spring, after which they would wither and turned brown.

Gardener's Log
: Came with the house, a somewhat small patch in front of the east living room window
This groundcover came with the house, and I’ve let it do its thing. Very pretty after it emerges, but is slowly creeping toward the sidewalk where I don’t want it to go. Unfortunately, even though I pull the volunteers they seem to be advancing every year! I think this would be a great plant to let wander in a moist area with concrete boundaries.
