Description

The listing, ❁❀10 Lily of The Valley Plants ❀❁ has ended.

The winner changed their mind. Please note knowing bidding and not getting intentionally is not fair to the lister or the people that watched and waited for it. Ive heard more complaints about the new system by many sellers on here, that they made a group and share names of who to block that does that :)
New home, starting to see new plants...try 50 feet by 5 feet of nothing but lilly of the valley!! With it being a poisons plant, I will get these all out as soon as they are done blooming. Because they are in the back yard where my dog goes. I will transplant many in the front yard , along the garage and online. I found the best time to dig them up is fall, but also found they can be dug up now after they bloom...which they are blooming now, so this will be a 21 day auction. It stated by digging up earlier than fall you will not see them bloom until next spring, that it is a "tough little plant" besides its delicate nature. This auction will be for 10 (ten of the stalks cut back with rhizomes) They like the shade, do not plant in the sun.
Interesting things I found on the plant are as follows... I would not recommend trying it with out knowing anything about plants, herbs, or with out the guidance of a doctor..."During Medieval times, lily of the valley was used by herbalists instead of foxglove.In treating heart disease, lily of the valley is often combined with motherwort (Leonurus cardicia), moonlit cacti (Selenicereus) and hawthorn (Crataegus oxyacantha).
An ointment made from the plant roots has been used to treat burn d prevent scar tissue.
In aromatherapy, the essential oil of lily of the valley is used to relieve depression, imbue gentleness, happiness, modesty, a sweet disposition and sense of security.
Lily of the valley is associated with the planet Mercury.
Warning:
Supervise children and pets that may be able to access the plant. It produces red berries that kids might eat. All parts of this plant are poisonous.

Questions & Comments

Excellent auction...I really appreciate your directness and honesty regarding the toxicity of this plant ...many people would be more concerned about getting it sold...thx for taking the time to explain where it should be planted and to exclude areas where pets and children will be playing...in the right setting these are a gorgeous plant❤️with lush green leaves and dainty little bell shaped white flowers:) pretty!

its important to be honest as possible online. So many dont know and just buy things. Its the sellers responsibility to be straight forward on everything. Thank you so much for commenting. They do smell awesome.It was a surprise to find them growing here. :D

I started putting the names of the deadbeats in my auctions and as people have stopped by thy added names, so now when I post auctions i just keep adding the names left by everyone. We as sellers have to protect ourselves somehow.
Isn't it funny that a plant that is sooo pretty can be so poisonous !!

Jun 15th, 2017 at 3:18:14 PM PDT by

Yes it is. I never thought about putting the names, thats a good idea. I share the names with a group, so they are not blocked by one they get blocked by many. It is not fair to the people that watched it the whole time, waited and bid and not fair to the lister. When you place a bid it says below the bid that you are agreeing to purchase the item if you win. So the new system they have created has created a pool of deadbeats. I never mind waiting for the person to get credits, I have waited over 3 weeks before. But the key was they communicated with me. Communication is the key. It does not take a rocket scientist to learn the A B C'S of communication. I can understand the new people that do not know. But some of these people have been on longer than me...geeeez.lol. They know better.

I have a large "crop" of these in my front yard, had no idea they were poisonous...I want to dig them up and put them along our stone wall...thanks for the great education on these pretty little flowered plants!

Jun 19th, 2017 at 5:18:41 PM PDT by

You are so welcome. I did not know either until I started looking up the plants popping up in my new home...lol.

I had these plants at my other home and the dogs always ignored them. I didn't know they were poisioness .. When my beatiful daughter died in April of 2005, I picked every booming flower, They were her favorite flowers,.I put the nosegay in her hands before they closed the casket. I sold that home and now need more to always remember her. So will be bidding. Thak you for offering them.

I am sooo sorry. I loaded up on purple passions on this site. They remind me of my mom and she had them at her house. I started looking into them of what the plant does and it does all kinds of medical uses and now it has become my most favored plant. I will send you extra and if you dont win I will still send you some :)God bless, and I am very sorry, thank you so much for sharing. My dog has not been bothering them also and my kids are grown. But I wanted other people out there to know about it being poison. Such a gorgeous and fragrant flower. Tiny and delicate. God bless <3

Love your plants. Just wanted to wish you good luck on the prayer plant I found 3 today for $2.34 each so I won't be bidding against you any more.

Jun 27th, 2017 at 2:03:30 PM PDT by

I did not know I was bidding against you on an auction. I really dont pay attention to who has bid what on them. I just see it and bid...lol. I am actually bidding on the prayer plant and sending her free plants, because she sent me lots of extras last time. So I am sending her some of these as well as some irises (flags) She sent me a lot that was not all in a past auction of aloe's and I remember the ones that go above and beyond and try to give back also :)
