Arrived healthy and new leaves are opening, but I only received one root. I’m honestly really disappointed because I expected two roots. I wanted to transfer them to the ground in a few weeks so they can flower next year.

Lily of the Valley will capture your heart the first time you see it bloom in spring. The small white cupped blooms are bell-shaped and hang their heads in the sweetest fashion, almost like snowdrops with a lush background of green foliage. They love shade which makes them ideal for many settings: a porch container, a ground cover near the tree-line, along a walkway, and others. This groundcover is reliable, lovely, incredibly fragrant, and a must-grow!

Store owner replied: Hello Shay. Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you only received one Lily of the Valley root when you were expecting two. They are pre-packed from our grower, and we have alerted them to this error. We understand how disappointing that must have been, especially when you were looking forward to establishing them in your garden for blooms next season. We previously reached out to learn more and offered a resolution but have not yet heard back.

At Eden Brothers, we stand behind our products and are committed to helping our gardeners achieve success and have the products they ordered!
I planted 4 roots and it seems all of them took. The following year there are so many. I am going to have to divide and spread this fall.

I bought a few of these roots and planted them in partial shade in several areas of the yard in fertilized soil, I watered them. Only one sprouted with any success. Maybe I did something wrong? Not enough sun? Wrong soil? I've had great success with other roots and bulbs from this company.

I ordered three bare roots and was nervous because the package got lost in the mail for a while. But, when they finally showed up, all the roots still looked healthy and ready to go! Sure enough, they’ve all taken well and I’m excited to see the blooms that come in the future.

I received two pips to get started. They have produced two leaves so far. Hopefully they will take off next spring.

Learned in time this is high highly invasive. I kept it in a pot instead and got a couple of tiny flowers. But it is still alive, maybe next season it'll grow bigger. It doesn't like full sun, needs shade.

I purchased 3 packs of 6, so 18 total. Not one of them surfaced - let alone bloomed over the next two and a half months. I planted late April in zone 9b, it’s now the end of July. I followed the planting guide supplied by Eden Brothers to a “T” because the bulbs aren’t cheap and I wanted to get the most out of them for this season.

I bought two packages of three roots. i actually recieved 8 bulbs (yay) but 5 of them were barely bigger than blades of grass (boo) as predicted none of them were mature enough to produce flower spikes, no blooms whatsoever.
