I wasn't especially thrilled with the way the leaves came out. But it's hard because they're so dark. I love these little flowers.

Right outside my kitchen window I've started a small garden. I like having them there as I can see them if I sit to eat dinner so far, I have a couple hydrangeas in there and some pansies and a bleeding heart. I don't want to awfully big things as I have flowers on both sides of the house, and then, as my backyard tapers off, there's a creek running through, and I have flowers all the way down the creek.
I go pick them and use them for my kitchen table.
But I love my flowers.

I have a small bed that I just started outside the kitchen window. All my flowers are on both sides of the house which I can't see them unless I go out and pick them or I'm outside. All my other flowers are at the end of my backyard near the creek.
I'll see if I can find a picture

I have Lily of the Valley in my front yard. I share them with my neighbor.

Lily of the valley meaning
A symbol of purity, joy, love, sincerity, happiness and luck, lily of the valley has much significance beyond the United Kingdom. It's actually the national flower of Finland, and in France, on 1st May for La Fête du Muguet, lily of the valleys are gifted to loved ones.
