Description: NO SHIPPING to states west of the Mississippi River due to PHYTOSANITARY REASONS. All plants shipped bare-root, roots and tops hosed off with water, and shipped in a plastic bag with moist paper due to PHYTOSANITARY REASONS. Convallaria majalis -- Lily of the Valley 20 bare-root plants -- from Michigan! * Grown WITHOUT chemicals* Photos of the actual patch wherefrom your plants will be dug. Healthy fresh-dug plants will be dug in the morning and shipped same-day in a light-weight but sturdy package. Please have a place for your package to arrive that is SHADED while it sits until you are able to open it. This way your plants will not cook in the sun. Plant so that all the green part is in the air and all the white part is under the soil. This is the proper depth for planting. Plants will look like pictures after well-established, i.e. in subsequent years. The second year, individual stems and leaves will look healthy. After a few years, the stand you plant will thicken up like in the pictures. When they arrive, they will have been dug and hosed off, and will likely look lightly bruised the first year. Holes in leaves do not heal in the first year. Please wait until next year for perfect-looking plants that look like they sprouted up, in place, in your soil. Plants ordered in late summer or fall will look bedraggled on top (leaves/stems), the later in the season the more yellow, but the roots and underground stems/buds will look plump, white and juicy. This is NOT death, but it is called senescence, and is part of the cycle of all perennials going into the dormant seasons. If your plants look yellowed and/or have mechanical damage to the leaves, know that they should be planted immediately like any other plant, and will look beautiful starting the next year and every year thereafter. Lily-of-the-Valley (Convallaria majalis) is native to Europe and is NOT appropriate to plant in natural areas in North America. It will exclude and kill some other plants including favored wildflowers like Trillium. PLEASE BE RESPONSIBLE. Do NOT plant Lily-of-the-Valley in areas where it can spread to forest settings.
