Convallaria majalis 'Albostriata'
Convallaria 'Albostriata' is a special form of lily-of-the-valley with green leaves striped with yellow.
Description:
Convallaria is a popular spring shade plant: waxy, fragrant, bell-shaped flowers are held above the upright, elliptic leaves that, in 'Albostriata', are uniquely yellow-striped. 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 of spring.
