It's a take-over!

These lords and ladies plants are spreading each year and getting bigger and bigger.


They are in competition with the lily of the valley in this small, confined border and it looks as though they are eager to move.



Look at them lining up ready to jump out of the bed.



Jane and Chris have lily of the valley taking over on their plot and also a beautiful plant called Trillium.

Hope you don't mind me pinching this pic.
Here's my Trillium for comparison.

  3. Trilliums indoors and out. I planted lily of the valley a few years ago but it hasn't increased in size at all, it can't be very happy where it is.

  6. Trillium looks nice. I love Lilly of the Valley but it refuses to grow in my garden.
