Garden Sentinels
These lilies of the valley are keeping watch over the garden. Like silent sentinels, they signal the other flowers that it is okay to start the spring growth surge.
Lilies of the valley are hard to contain. They really are like weeds, silently marching across the gardenscape, taking over whatever hill or dip that they want. The good thing about them is that they seem to be ale to grow where others things can't, or won't. And they do add a green lushness to the garden. And they smell really good.
I'm not sure why I have this love/hate relationship with these plants. Maybe they remind me of me--strong, pretty, adding value, but also just a little overwhelming.
