Convallaria majalis 'Albostriata'

. Rare. Variegated lily of the valley, with cream-striped leaves and cream-white flowers. Only one piece with large shoot per pot. Most variegated cultivars revert to plain leaves within a few years, but 'Albostriata' is less likely to do so. Plants don't spread as readily as other varieties, making it a good choice for small gardens. It works well when grown at the front of a shady border or beneath shrubs, and works very well in a vase. Arching racemes of bell-shaped, white flowers with an extremely rich perfume, from late spring. Shade. Woodland garden or shady border. Winter dormant.
