Convallaria majalis 'Fortin's Giant'
Convallaria majalis 'Fortin's Giant' is a vigorous, larger-flowered form of the classic Lily of the Valley. In spring, elegant arching stems carry beautifully scented, nodding white bell-shaped flowers above broad, lush green leaves, creating a timeless woodland display.
More robust than the species, ‘Fortin’s Giant’ produces taller stems and slightly larger blooms, making it particularly effective for naturalising beneath trees and shrubs or in shaded borders. Easy to grow in moist, humus-rich soil, it forms a spreading carpet over time and is ideal for adding fragrance and texture to dappled shade.
- Larger, strongly scented white bell flowers
- Taller and more vigorous than the species
- Ideal for woodland planting and ground cover
