It's twin is still fat and happy. That's what I get for attempting symmetry. I am training the older one by thinning out spindly branches in the interior and selectively removing some of the lower branches. Not quite bonsai, but sort of.

My mom has an out of control colony at her house, and that's where my first start for this batch came from. I don't remember where she told me that her first one came from ... I know that she planted it, though. Maybe we don't see it anymore because garden centers are so concerned with instant Connie in Hartwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09127877285792861166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-489596100395140547.post-34007499412013509962016-04-18T07:42:39.731-04:002016-04-18T07:42:39.731-04:00The baby birds were chilling when I first went int...The baby birds were chilling when I first went into the greenhouse to check on them.

We live mostly in the woods so there are many flowers we can't grow now. But when we were first married we rented a 100+-year old farm house with established gardens and lilies of the valley were one of the flowers that delighted us each year. You don't see them much any more.
