I am a landscape designer and have been purchasing 1000's of spring flowering bulbs from A.D.R. Bulbs for 100's of clients in the last 20 years. The bulbs have always been of top quality and if there were any problems, they have been quick to rectify. My orders are often complicated with many varieties and different amounts and they have always filled and delivered everything on time with the best customer care and attention to detail. The pictures in their catalog and website are beautiful. I have visited their facility in NY and was impressed with all their handling equipment and organization. I would highly recommend A.D.R. Bulbs to anyone in the wholesale trade who wants to purchase quality bulbs and work with genuinely nice people.

Convallaria majalis, or lily of the valley, is a shade-loving perennial known for its delicate, nodding white bell-shaped flowers and sweet fragrance. Blooming in spring, it thrives in partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soil, forming dense colonies over time. Deer-resistant and low-maintenance, it is ideal for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and ground cover.

Planting: Plant rhizomes (pips) in early to mid-spring after the danger of frost has passed. Soak them in water for a few hours beforehand to rehydrate. Set each pip about ½ inch deep with the pointed bud facing up, spacing them 6 inches apart.
Location: Choose a cool, shaded to partially shaded site—ideal under deciduous trees or along north-facing walls.
Soil: Prefers organically rich, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Amend with compost if needed.
Watering: Water thoroughly after planting and keep soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–8. Performs best in cool, temperate climates with mild summers.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a balanced fertilizer in early spring to support healthy foliage and flowering.
Pruning: Remove spent flower stalks and yellowing leaves to tidy the plant. Cut back foliage in late fall if desired.
Propagation: Spreads by underground rhizomes. Divide clumps every 3 to 5 years in spring or fall to control spread and rejuvenate growth.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free. Avoid overly wet conditions to prevent root rot.
