I know this beautiful Lily of the Valley won't last long. In fact, I'm surprised that it actually bloomed for me, since most plants refuse to grow flowers once I touch them with my grubby little grey thumbs.
The first individual blossom opened on Easter Sunday, but only one seemed very small, so I waited to photograph the stalks until more flowers had blossomed.
It seems like each day a few more individual flowers open up.
I just adore the petite look of the flowers.
Thank you Mother for such a sweet gift.

I love it when my plants flourish! I don't have a green thumb at all. This flower is so pretty!
it was really exciting to see it blossom. I fully expected it to shrivel up but I guess I have to thank my mother for sending me a fail safe plant for me and my grey thumb. She can make plants bloom even from 800 miles away.
so dainty...I love them too
Yes, now I just have to hope that I can make them bloom again next year. Maybe I'll send them to my mother so she can insist that they make a good showing next year.
